    That was definitely a bracing walk! A beautiful place and the observation posts are very interesting, you’d think they would be preserved.

    Lovely area - bit windy though!😂 Kinda reminds me of the Oregon Coast w/ its winds!!!
    Surprised that they deemed it a great place for an air field die to all of that high wind! Usually airfields try to avoid place that windy for take-offs & landings! Surprised they didn't have more airplane crashes than the one you reported just because of the wind!!!😬

      Thanks Lisa. Yes your right about the airfield being in such a windy place

    The gunning positions would have had an anti aircraft gun which would have been used in WW2 to defend the airfield from incoming attacks.
