10:30 your right they stored ammo there and the big hill was a back stop for targets if someone missed

Hey Em and Stu I just wanted to correct a few bits of the video and add some bits 2:05 it was used by British Canadian and American infantry during WW1 and WW2 4:52 theres ariel photographs of the camp in 1943 showing it was still in use and was used for training of soldiers for the D-Day landings and also under the dirt there is corrugated iron if you dig in certain places you'll find. 6:29 they were used for the training of home guard members although there is not much evidence showing what they were. Although if you go near the firing ranges you can find a small bunker which was used for munitions storage. Recently the dugouts have started to be caved in purposefully and was made to look like heavy machinery was used. Great video though I couldn't find anything wrong with the rest of it.

Very interesting vid. In 1972 I moved to Norwich and the following year, spent a few months working for Lotus at their upholstery dept. at Ketteringham Hall which was also Colin Chapman's base. This was the time the new fibreglass Elite, Eclat models came out. A story went about in the department that one evening, a few chaps stayed back to do some overtime. At one point, a employee looked up and saw what looked like a fellow in military uniform some distance away. He called out to him to find out what he was doing there but to his shock, the person faded away. He was so shocked, he left immediately and did not return. The Hall was the HQ of the 2nd Air Division USAAF during the war. I've always had a 'thing' for old airfields having been brought up in Suffolk and that feeling of melancholy stuck with me for years. Keep an eye out as well for dates etc in concrete paths/roads/runways etc .. Good luck👍

Ref. the concrete track with what appear to be rails, may have been a towed moving target track - ? 🤔

Looks like you had fun, hope you all had a Merry Christmas 💯

What a fantastic and lovely trip hope you both had a nice Christmas 🎄 and happy new year 🎇🎇🎇

The gate lodge/office building and the power house (BLF 1909) were built in the rare neo-Aztec style. They are the only two known examples of this architectural style in the whole of the UK.

If it's at the north west of the postwar T2, I found it in 1991 and was very impressed at how substantial it is. Never come across anything like it, although a couple of the features exist at other airfields. Did some light excavation work there a few years ago. 🙂

If you ever venture anywhere near York, visit Skipwith Common off the A19 - Former HCU and Heavy Bomber Station - substantial range of structures plus bomb dump and Gun synchronisation range. intact shelters etc and Pyro stores, Taxi way intact with tie down rings on dispersal hard standing...beware the Dartmoor Ponies that are brought there often for some R&R as well as the Long Horn cattle. Its mostly been reclaimed by nature and is a sanctuary but no restrictions re ;public access -track to it from the junction on the A163 - Riccal Airfield, just go straight on down the rough track into perimiter and the concrete bases of the old accn blocks on the right can be parked on. Good day out - long walk up the track to circular bomb dump - ramps still there.

This is right on my doorstep! The field on the south side of the woods is due to be redeveloped with a road going straight through it :(

The odd shape blast shelter may possibly be a local defence point for rifles & light machine guns. These sort of bases were often constructed to local design and varied hugely on the airfields around the country. 😊

The blast shelter you found according to official designation was 'for fifty persons'. Would certainly have been a squeeze - ! 😮

Sorry, should have said this was for one of the domestic sites, the gymnasium / chapel being fairly close by. Obviously m the sewage treatment works would have been some distance away, preferably downwind - ! 😊 Never found the sewage site, but may well have been demolished and refarmed by the mid 60s.

Your first building is indeed a borehole pumphouse. The RSJs under the roof slab were to support the weight of the sizeable water tank on the roof. 😊

The problem with the Hethel site plan is that ghe only existing one is actually a poor copy and thus isn't particularly accurate. Spent a fair time exploring the site pre Lotus days. Not too much left now though.

I'd like to see the junk, not a bunch 🤮of self-importants.

Thanks Stu and Emma for 2024! Wishing you all success in 25, you always show me something new and make me more appreciative of my years living in Southdown, Great Yarmouth. THanks!

Not good holidays at points. I got attached. I never went back again

Merry Christmas, that looked like a lot of fun. I'm still highly envious of your access to all these trains. Tell stu he looks like he should be in one of those jason statham/vinnie jones type action movies.

Great video lots of fun to watch. Glad you all enjoyed it. Hope you have a wonderful Christmas.

Happy Christmas
