Hi, again another post from a couple of years ago. I believe that this site is still there ... must go back and pay another visit !

Here is the wiki page, but it closed in 1958 and I heard there are gypsies living there now. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/RAF_Honiley

You should never underestimate health and safety

Electronics Laboratory - obviously

Corridors of power

A place where time stands still

Guages

Diffuser Vanes

Some lovely warm light coming into a cold room

Some lovely moss growing over the guttering

Watch out - don't smoke in the presence of Cordite !

Some wonderful reflections in the water on the flat roof

Just a few bits of paperwork left to look at

Serious protection

Ivy covered doorway

Fuel pipes

And Bully's star prize tonight

Beautiful entrance

I went here last summer with a couple of buddies! It was amazingly quiet! However we did have to belt it when we heard the slam of a car door - I'll have to post the pictures at some point!

The game keeper and gun club people can be a bit shirty but this place is a hidden gem really.

Popped back here recently actually. Some lil scrotes have managed to smash the inch thick glass that looks into the chambers panel work is smashed up too otherwise just like it always was.

Parked at the gun club as it was empty but as we walked back to the car we bumped into an old boy pigeon shooting he was sound though! The chaps at the gun club aren't quite as friendly!!!
