Nearest airfield/strip to Warsash
Does anyone know the nearest airstrip to Warsash? I've seen that Hamble did have an airfield, but cannot find any information suggesting that aviation still takes place there.

Hamble now covered in houses.
The nearest are Southampton (not GA friendly), Lower Upham (grass, private, but open to visitors) and Lee-on-Solent, only recently re-opened to visitors, but with good tarmac.

Hamble used to be the ab initio training school for BA!

Sandown and Bembridge probably aren't that far away
It's about 7 miles to Lee and 12 to Lower Upham.

XXPlod - not what it says on Lower Upham Airfield :
Visitors welcome.
Airfield open 8 am to Sunset.
Close to Southampton and the Solent.
Hangarage & outside storage available.
Pity they can't update/remove the website.
