A41 crossing Tilstock Airfield
When Tilstock was an operational base, the A41 across the airfield was cut and traffic routed via the A49, which runs along the west side of the field. So AFAIK there was no need for traffic management.
We used Tilstock to practice forced landings in Piston Provosts when I was at Ternhill in 1956. Never touched down, just descended to about 50 feet before going around. We saw a surprising number of couples having it away among the bushes bordering the A49

It is indeed 14/32, although we now use the hard runway rather than the grass as there is now a 65 acre solar panel array on the old landing area and strip.
