Basic landing fees excl. VAT were about £8 per half tonne last time I went there in an AA5B... I think it worked out at £29 including VAT, and no handling fee if you are dealt with by the airport Ops team.

If it's only a quick stop, then they will probably find a space for you, and they don't charge a handling fee. It's only if you use Signature that it gets more expensive because of their handling fee. If you can be flexible on times and make sure you're punctual once booked in, the airport Ops team are very helpful, considering they have only 12 stands which are all full with commercial stuff at certain times of the day.

Always been very helpful to me on my occasional GA visits, I use mostly commercial nowadays. I don't have their direct number to hand I'm afraid though, so you'll have to call the hideous 0870 040 0009 airport number and ask to be put through to airfield ops.
