I don't get that. South Cerney is so close to Little Ris as makes no odds, except that the site may have a longer life in MoD hands. Swanton has trees all over it and the Army have already said the site is closing in 2023................and Swanton is inside the Norwich CTA ............

unless these 2 are additional short term 'flexibility' sites..................

And half of the staff of 614 VGS (Wethersfield) live more than a 2-hour drive from Swanton Morley. Given that we are dealing with volunteers, this is an important factor in considering the viability of Swanton Morley as an operating site if future output is important.
