Disused airstrip, Chedworth airfield
Disused airstrip, Chedworth airfield
Chedworth was an RAF base during World War 2. This is the eastern end of the main airstrip. A little further west, the airstrip has been broken up and has been returned to farmland. Further west still, much of the old airstrip is still there, although somewhat broken up, and a cross strip running almost north to south crosses this strip and has much of the original surface remaining.
