I'm very lucky that my job allows me to cover this area, as well as the old airfields at Breighton, Pocklington, Home on Spalding Moor, Melbourne and Full Sutton. Also, the airship base at Howden, Barnes Wallis and all that, and the relief landing ground at Bellasize, next to nothing left of these last two though.
Apart from the tower, I always thought that Snaith (Pollington) was reasonably complete, until one of the locals lent me a book (Ford?) which showed how much of the site had gone forever.
Sadly, I will not be able to attend the Remberance Day service this year, it has always been a joy to speak with those that served here.
Dibs.
