Fourth site visit today
Also known as Normanton Airfeild, it covers quite a sizable area, with several companies operating on site. And at the time (1300) Was very busy with incoming and outgoing traffic.
Full history can be found here

As I was in a vehicle I only did a quick recce, but found this Shelter far enough away from the security barrier as not to make myself too obvious.
Scanning the area with my bino's, I spotted several apparently empty buildings, as well as this taken with a zoom lens
Enough on its own to warrant a second visit, this time on foot. There are a few Public footpaths that go close enough to buildings for me to play the bemused Rambler with an upside-down map
Two more sites to visit today. Reports to follow on Claypole ROC post and RAF Fulbeck.
