Remnants of a lost aerodrome

RNAS Donibristle closed in 1959. Some of the buildings still survive, converted for use as business or industrial units, but gradually the old makes way for the new, and at some point all trace of the former air base will have gone. This stretch of tarmac is one of the few open spaces not to have been built on.
