It's all a bit sad really - the place is apparently owned by property people of various ilks, presumably in the hope of making a killing. If they just thought airfield instead of housing estate, they could probably turn it in to something quite profitable.....

The place is a short distance from junction 11 on the M25 and from Woking rail station.. It's right next door to McLaren's. There's lots of space for GA parking.

All in all, it's an ideal and comparitively low cost gateway to London. You can't land big bizjets there, but you can land a Pilatus PC 12 and similar size aircraft. Knock down all the ancient brick and cardboard buldings and build a low cost hotel, cafe and modern industrial units, and you could maybe make money. Hold on to the land in the hope of building a housing estate, and you have to give up and sell it.
