I've been here before but as I was up this way with an hour to kill before dropping off my car, I've made you suffer it again.
In a soggy farmers feild sits this large abandoned HAA battery, it's still in great condition and was buit to protect the aircraft factory which was at RAF Yeadon, now Leeds and Bradford International Airport.
Four large gun positions and a sub surface HQ remain, the HQ is flooded to about three feet of smelly water.
First gun and its magazines.
