Hmmm...in a word (or two!)..probably not. Its pretty close to where I live and I have walked the old runways a couple of times. They are very overgrown with weeds and the surface is awful. What type of aircraft are you flying?
Last time I went there, there was a roughly marked out landing area on one of the old WW2 runways, but that was a few years ago now. Also, there are pylons that cross the field, so be very careful when going down for a look.
Your other option is the perimeter track that is in fairly good shape and you could definitely land on (its quite narrow and there is a fence that borders it within about 100 feet) The whole area is a fave location for dog walkers and local ramblers, so watch out for them - dog or ramblers tend to ruin your propeller!
Best to see if there is a contact number and give the guy a ring. If you're a microlight he might let you use the peri-track.
