Binbrook 1941/1968 photos

Thought some of you might be interested in seeing these photos of a set on Flickr, as I understand things they have just been scanned so they may or may not have been seen before,

The Battle photos appear to be France 1940 not Binbrook!!

It would be interesting to see an exact match-up of the shepherd photo taken today.

Found it! Using Google Streetview and a bit of virtual wandering around the village 😉

Fantastic shots, from the Vulcans doing circuits to the WWII Wellingtons, have to agree with Rob about the village scene.

Given the state of RIP Binbrook today, your photos are hauntingly bitter sweet. Thanks for sharing.

As above. Love the village scene with the shepherd and his sheep, the garage and the Wellington overhead… very evocative!

Interesting pics. I’ve got loads that I took as a youth of similar quality, but whatever the quality, it is history and should be saved and shared.
