Managed to drive passed this place during a visit to the area by accident..a part from the Shack-- Also on site were Sea Prince WM735/G-RACA, Gloster Meteor T.7 WL332, Whirlwind HAR.10 XP346 all frames were battered and had seen better days.

Just outside Stratford on Avon to the south-ish Graham, had a few micro`s there as well, to be honest I had never heard of the place before I drove into it.. Turned it into a scrap yard, drag strip and drive training center. I was going to Stratford with the missiz and saw the signs for an airfield and well thought it would be rude not to try and find it..

Cheers Smudge & John, I get that way for work 2-3 times a month so will have to call by. Are they receptive to us aviation types? I just drove in. went straight down the roadway passed the perci on the right, saw the shack on the right and turned right down a bumpy grass track which led to another disused taxi way where the shack was marooned ( few pics) and up to the top and turned left- carried on down and found an open hanger with some micros in.. didn't see anyone other than by the hanger and the lorry cafe on the way in.. Best way is in the main gate and turn right towards the micro park missing out the grass track I found out later....

Access usually granted if you ask at club office and the main hangar is open. They have opened a small hangar next to club office for me as someone had the key. Access is not granted to the far side small hangers. Les
