Large parts of the WWII airfield were sold off after the war and other bits have been 'sliced' off since. The area closest to Findhorn was sold to the Findhorn Foundation - home to the local hippy and anti-nuclear community. I'm sure some lawyers will be preparing a case against the MoD for 'past actions' even as we speak. This issue would seem to underline why the MoD doesn't sell off bases anymore - the legislation requiring ALL contamination be removed from the land would make it too costly.
