After stubbling across one of the dispursed sites for RAF Woolfox Lodge, I respectfully ask anyone who may have any info, maps or pictures of the above site.
My son Jakob and I have visited the old airfield with the kind permission of Mr. M and would like to see the entire site before its lost.
Many thanks in advance.
Jerry

Nice to see you’re about,
Mr. M that owns the airfield is fine but that a*@>%ole was just behond belief.
I’ll wait until satan comes for him, then visit.
On a nicer note, are things all ok with the family?

Thanks for that chaps, but I thought i’d do the decent thing as always and ask a local farmer, now i’m a fairly honest chap but was’nt expecting this:
After asking the nastiest evil old B45 T4 RD i’ve ever had the misfortune to meet,
“Hello there, I wonder if my 10 year old son and I could walk up the old perimeter track and take a few photos of the huts that are along the side of it, as we enjoy looking at these sites and have had been given permission ………………….. but, ergh……..”
He kindly interupted me and said:
“stay off my land, if you come on again the dogs will be let loose and i’ll get my shotgun, don’t think theres a public footpath either as i’ve made unpublic in the hardest way” “now clear off and don’t come back”
May thanks Mr North for your most valued time and such a pleasant chat, and I look forward to never crossing paths with you again!
A link to the area of the dozen or so huts:
