Thnx for the expeditious reply BTW. Appreciated.
Interestingly The 'replacement' SID waypoints for Barton VOR are in the vicinity but not co-located with the old beam-box.
Unlike a lot of old VOR sites, where their imprint remains a little distance from the new DVOR's, Barton appears to have been ploughed over.

As you say, now long gone and all ploughed over.

BTN VOR/DME (freq. 112.4) was located at N53 27 30 W02 27 21
The above details extracted from Pooley's Flight Guide 1980.

My apologies, the co-ordinates I gave were for the waypoint. Misread the document I was referring to.
