Location: Just E of Dalscote, barely a village, about 3.5nm N of Towcester town centre and roughly 5nm SW of Northampton town centre
Period of operation: Unknown? Since the 1990s to - possibly 1980?
Runway(s): Roughly N/S 370 max grass Possibly/probably a roughly E/W landing area - 390 max?
NOTES: This is a great example of several locations where, without much or any doubt, aviation has been committed for many years. The landing areas being only barely defined, and with the E/W area being open to doubt.
As always in this 'Guide', if anybody can kindly offer advice and information, this will be most welcome.
