This old WW2 airfield was used mainly by gliders and for testing experimental runway surfaces. The site is now a business park, mostly with new buildings but some of the old round roof huts are still in use. Old airfield fans might like to see this suite of atmospheric night pics. http://www.derelictplaces.co.uk/main/showthread.php?t=8461 Also see http://www.controltowers.co.uk/H-K/Kingston%20Bag.htm and several others for much more detailed images than mine.
