The airfield site has now been restored to a nature park with parts of the original runway still visible,there is also the "communal" area for RAF Woodhall Spa opened and restored now named "Thorpe Camp" full of history about the site,well worth a visit, I worked on the old airfield when it was a sand and gravel quarry until its closure about five years ago
Its funny how you can regognise a location by the most abstract of details.
Top of Duke Street Hill just outside LBG station.
The banner on the bridge behind was produced by one of my competitors.....
I used to have a Ford Cortina that looked just like this
Hand-made nail, found on the towpath, by the dismantled (in process of being replaced) swing-bridge there
Doubtless it came out of the timbers of the old decking (showon of 1905 OS mapping)
