The command bunker is in the woods just to the left of the tower and was another fave childhood haunt.
Most of the runway is now gone but back in 1987 I learned to drive on it. The other bits and bobs are scattered round the woods. The place was huge when I was a kid but the Billingford Estate gradually pulled up the strip and destroyed the buildings.
Great suff and thanks.
