RAF Bungay was a base located not in Bungay, but in Flixton, 3 miles south.
We parked next to the US Air Force memorial.
Someone is keeping it in good condition, with grass cut and flowerbeds maintained.
From there, there's a concrete road leading straight to the RAF buildings.
Is this the air filtration system?
The largest building has been used by fly tippers
And since someone else visited three years ago, even the toilets have been removed!
However the frosted windows were probably where they might have been. Curiously, the floor is level, so someone has taken the time to not only remove the lav, but to cement under it, all in the last three years? Why?
If you continue on the concrete road, you eventually find an abandoned farm.
These must have been stables.
And I suspect they belong to Abbey Farm which, according to a property listing, is part of a 16 acre estate
The propety is empty. There's no free access, although there's a boarded window on one of the doors, so someone clearly made that right. Looking through windows it's empty.
Looks like it was up for sale two years ago for 780k but no sale is recorded in public records. The previous sale was £500k in 2005.
I wonder if the land is more important than the house?
