Note: All four of these pictures were obtained from Google Earth ©
Location: Just S of the A44, nearly 2nm WNW of Kington town centre, 18nm NW of Hereford
Period of operation: Late 1990s (?) to -
Runway: 12/30 360 grass
NOTES: I have Mr Graham Frost to thank for pointing out this airstrip. If anybody can kindly offer advice this will be most welcome.
Is it just my imagination or is the runway visible in the 2001 picture? It has the look of being used, but nowhere near as defined as in the later pictures.
Graham also tells me that the BAC Drone, G-ADPJ, has been based here. Perhaps since 2011, but it seems, no longer flying.
We'd love to hear from you, so please scroll down to leave a comment!
