Whilst travelling east on the M4 recently, on the west bound side, behind the Membury Services (near the A338 junction) I noticed a hanger with the front end of something which appeared to be a C182 or similar sticking out the front of it.
I use the route reasonably regularly and would probably not have seen it if it wasn't for the time of year and lack of leaves on hedging.

I'm just curious as to if its a well used facility or someones private pride and joy (if it's the latter, no names - no pack drill, keep it private).
