Airfield MAP Lakenheath 1960's
I am looking for an airfield map of RAF Lakenheath from 1960 to the early 1970's. (Pre TAB-V shelters). My particular interest is in the location of the 12 Victor Alert barns that were located along a disused runway. In addition, any photos showing the hangars would be of tremendous help. Your time is much appreciated!

You could try the National Archives (Swindon IIRC) who now hold all the overheads of most UK airfields. Recently managed to get hold of some lovely verts of a small airfield in Yorkshire from a friend of a friend; got pictures from 1938, several WWII years, 1950s and 1970s. Not a map I know but you could probably get more from the pictures than from a map.
