Strubby Tower being restored!

Good news it seems!

Whilst looking round Robert Truemans most excellent Control Towers site I saw that someone had sent in some recent photos of old RAF Strubby’s former control tower, and its currently being restored to its former glory.

How refreshing in this current climate, where these towers are being demolished left right and centre, to see one of these actually being preserved.

For every building saved some more vanish forever. a little like the advert on television, you know the one?, the dumb/smart factor?.
While Strubby’s Tower is given a new lease of life, the remaining, and up till recently still used, wartime buildings west of Stansted airport and including Nissens and Handcraft huts were demolished last week.
Ho hum!
