Hobbit,

Keyston's pretty well known in the midlands but I'm not sure what information is available. I don't even know if it's in Lockyear's but it'd be worth a look. Here's one of the main reasons for stopping there, though it is a bit pricey:

Here's a Googlemaps shot of the strip and village. Nice strip, downhill slope from north to south. Can't remember how long it is but it's no problem for a PA28 or even a Pitts. An excellent first strip because it's an easy one to cut your teeth on. Just maintain all circuits to the west (avoid overflying the village) and land into wind (slope isn't enough to trade it for wind) and have a great time!
