Hullavington
It seems we have lost the thread again. I recently came across this statement on an Expansion Airfields site:
"What is interesting about Hullavington is that the land was donated by the Duke of Beaufort (IIRC) whose only stipulation was that the architecture should be in keeping with the locality. The upshot of this being that all buildings viewable from outside the camp (including part of the OMQs) were built/clad in local stone, whereas buildings further inside the camp (invisible to the public) were red brick. I believe this was the only Station done like this."
The Duke of Beaufort is not listed as one of the former owners according to the Crichel Down notice and the Badminton Estate is not able to find any records that it ever owned the land.
Does anyone out there know anything about this?
