Olivers Farm
OLIVER’S FARM: Private helipad and base
Note: Both of these pictures were obtained from Google Earth ©
Operated by: Mr G Watt (Broxhead Motors)
Location: Just NE of the B3002 and Broxhead Farm Road, just N of Lindford village
Period of operation: 1973 to 1985?
NOTES: As said elsewhere private helipads are ten a penny today but back in the mid 1970s they were still a rarity, hence my mentioning this site where it appears the Bell 47H-1 G-AZYB was based - a classic helicopter type, (perhaps the first classic helicopter?), which starred in TV series like The Whirlybirds and MASH.
