Water Tower, Upper Heyford Airfield
This may well still be in service as many of the former military buildings and houses on the airfield site are now in civilian use.

Welcome To Yo R Store
Empty supermarket at Upper Heyford airbase.
RAF Upper Heyford opened for flying in 1918 and was used by the RAF in WW2. Later it was used by the Americans, but the last USAF aircraft left on December 7 1993 and a fully equipped base was handed back to the Ministry of Defence, along with the big question of what to do with it.
The housing has been rented out and some of the buildings are business units in various states of repair, but nearly two decades on whole sections of the place still look like a ghost town.

Mouldering papers lie in the grass beside an derelict parking lot at Upper Heyford airfield. On the left is a large, empty and vandalized hospital and on the right a boarded up supermarket.

Communications Building
The sign reads 620th Communications Squadron. This was a working military airfield until 1993 but a lot of the buildings look distinctly World War 2.
Nice to know our taxes aren't being frittered on fancy huts.
