Hillington
HILLINGTON: Private airstrip
Note:Mr Graham Frost provided the Google © ground view. The 2009 picture was obtained from Google Earth © and the local area view is from my Google Earth © derived database.
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.
We'd love to hear from you, so please scroll down to leave a comment!
