TL5519 : Watch out- there's an airport about!

taken 17 years ago, near to Takeley, Essex, England

Watch out- there's an airport about!
Watch out- there's an airport about!
Looking across this Essex farming landscape, it's difficult to believe that on the horizon is one of the busiest airports in Britain. This is a view towards Little Barrington Hall and beyond that Hatfield Forest which is a National Trust countryside park. If BAA get their way and Stansted Airport is tripled in size over the next 15 years, then areas like this will disappear under concrete and sprawling buildings disfigure the landscape.
