Now a Museum
The former base commander's building by the main gate to Upper Heyford airfield.
There is still a checkpoint outside, controlling access to what is now Upper Heyford Business Park.
The first floor houses a museum of the airfield's service days. http://www.raf-upper-heyford.org/Museum.html
The following wonderful bit of aviation trivia is a snippet from that site.
"RAF Upper Heyford is the only base in the world that had an aircraft named after it. The Heyford was a twin engine, bi-plane bomber that saw service between the wars, and to my knowledge never fired a shot, or dropped a bomb in anger."
