Stonehill Farm
STONEHILL FARM: Private airstrip (Aka CRAWFORDJOHN AIRFIELD)
Note: The first two pictures were obtained from Google Earth ©. The local area and area views are from my Google Earth © derived database.
Location: Roughly 3nm SW of Crawfordjohn which is on the B740, roughly 2.5nm W of junction 13 on the M74
Period of operation: From around 2004?
Landing area: Orientated roughly E/W the maximum landing run is: 06/24 400 grass
NOTES: Info source, AAIB report EW/G2014/02/07. It appears the Rotorsport UK MTOsport G-GSMT was based here - or was it just visiting?
The farm has a cottage to rent (Stonehill Cottage) near the airstrip and has its own website.

He had a flexwing microlight (GT450 Quik) then a gyrocopter. He sold Stonehill farm (which includes the airstrip) just a few years ago and moved to Rothsay.
We'd love to hear from you, so please scroll down to leave a comment!
