Not much left of the runway now, mostly used for a car boot sale. Also a lot of building around it (new shopping centre etc).
RAF Woodvale is only just up the road and still active though, maybe they could be persuaded to allow GA (if they don't already, there's certainly a flying school there). Merseyside Police chopper was there too until someone broke in and set fire to it.....
