It is illegal to enter private property without permission.
Photographs taken in 1995 when the station was under "care & maintenance". The drawing details are taken from a 1945 Air ministry site plan and a 1972 Defence Land Agency plan.
I know the later control tower is now a dwelling. Very nice it looks too! Please respect their privacy!
Unsure of the status of the other buildings as I have not been back since these were taken. I believe light industry has moved into some and others me be earmarked for preservation. It would be a shame to see them go the way many others have. Shame about the airfield, still, that's progress I suppose.
I will be putting many other "revisited" slideshows on here in the coming months. So keep your eye on this channel, it may be your station next.
Please ask if you want to use any of the shots.

If you are hungry for more info on WW2 airfield architecture please buy my books on the subject. Just search on ebay for "British Airfield Buildings" or email me. Only I sell new copies. Vol 1 and 2.
