A meeting and picnic circle in Ellenbrook Fields where once the de Havilland Aircraft Company buzzed with activity. The closure of the airfield in 1994 ripped the guts out of Hatfield. The Salisbury Village development and Business Park have been built on the eastern part of the site but not before "Saving Private Ryan" was filmed in the rubble.
