RAF Long Newnton Airfield Slideshow

[@a320trevor]

I visited the field last year covered in photovoltaic cells but you can see the buildings close to the Fosse Way. I was born in Chippenham and lived near Swindon but was never aware of this field’s history. Thank you for the details. The only thing more disappointing than a disused airfield is a neglected Golf Course imho. ie Highworth Golf Centre, Swindon.

@mrrmancunian. Sorry matey, my mistake. I know what you mean now & yes, I agree, old airfields certainly raise a mixed bag of emotions.

@mrrmancunian I sometimes get the feeling that I'm being watched, but It's not chilling. I love the history of these airfields & what they stand for, so it makes me sad to see them in such a poor state of repair.

@mrrmancunian Ain't that the truth, just look how far we have "progressed" since WW2.
