Quarry Cottage
QUARRY COTTAGE: Private airstrip (Aka SHELLINGFORD CROSS ROADS)
Note: The first three pictures were obtained from Google Earth ©. The area view is from my Google Earth © derived database.
Location: Just N of the A417, just S of the B1508 and just E of the Shellingford crossroads. 2.25nm ESE of Faringdon town centre
Period of operation: Perhaps from around 2010 (?) to -
Runway: 13/31 190 grass
NOTES: We have Mr Graham Frost, a great friend of this 'Guide', to thank for pointing out this location.
It appears that the Zenair CH750, G-CIMN, has been based here since 2015. (These notes being made in 2023). Registered on 11.02.15.
I may well be barking up the wrong tree, (it has happened), but it does seem to appear that the 'blister' hangar was erected before the airstrip was used?
As always, if anybody can kindly offer advice and information, this will be most welcome. Pictures are always much appreciated.
We'd love to hear from you, so please scroll down to leave a comment!
