The remaining bombs were all defused and disposed of in the late 1960s/early 1970s by the RAF Bomb Disposal Squadron based at RAF Bicester in Oxfordshire. My late father was an offcer there at this time, and he pulled some strings and got me on a visit one week. I remember being driven up there in an RAF Bomb Disposal car along the A5 (no motorways then), but can't remember too much about what I saw and what went on. I most certainly kept my distance whilst the defusing was taking place however! Thanks very much for this visit post.

Visited this around 1989 - very clean then without all that damned mess on the walls. On another occasion visited with a young daft dog who dashed off in the dark and managed to jump into the then flooded railway track!
