Location: Immediately S of the A148, just NE of Hillington village, and about 7nm NE of King's Lynn town centre

Period of operation:  Unknown?  Probably 2004 to 2009?
 

Runway:  Roughly -    07/25   470   grass


NOTES:  Up until October 2022 I had only a very basic listing for this location until being contacted by Mr Graham Frost, a great friend of this 'Guide'. Apart from pinpointing the location, Graham also tells us that a co-owner of the Piper PA-22-150 Caribbean G-ARHN (ex N3622Z), had his address here.

That period of ownership, between the two parties, was from 22.06.04 until 17.02.09. Presumably G-ARHN only made visits as being a 'rag-wing' Piper it needed to be hangared, especially in the winter. As always, if anybody can kindly offer advice and information, this will be most welcome.
