    Excellent video, thanks so much for posting!
    Edited entry:
    I grew up in Coney Hall (1950s), but can't quite work out where you were in the opening shots? Thanks, now, to your prompt reply, I am now able to see it was, indeed, the path from Gates Green Road, up past Wickham Common School.
    My initial comments were that you will have walked past the top-end of Queensway, where I grew up, and there-on up to Rouse Farm, where you show the view across the fields from the gate. Rouse Farm was known locally back then as Crowe's Farm, and the farm buildings appear little changed over the years. There used to be a huge open barn to the right of where you set back off, and the view you now see across the field from there is towards Well Wood. From there you appear to go down through Nash, ending up on Nash Lane, taking the path via the old style and on to Keston, the exact route we would have taken back in the 1950/60s to the Biggin Hill Airshow! The old plane you saw was indeed a Spitfire, but a training version with an extra rear seat. I can't elaborate on the old buildings, only that they would indeed have been old RAF storage, or whatever. Thanks again for posting, I really enjoyed it!

      Thank you very much for watching, the start was a path right next to a school up the side of it.

      Thanks Zody.
      I now see my initial comment was cut short, so it's lucky you could make any sense of it al all! I'm not quite sure what happened there! it was much wider
      I'll see if I am able to edit my initial post, so it at least makes sense to your post.
      Now edited and updated.

    Interesting. Would prefer to see trains. But still the same quality of uploads

      Yeah I'd prefer trains too but no new models and it's boring to do that same thing over and over so I changed it up
