Visited with Gone, Lazlo, Jimmyhalfway and another lass who's name i didnt catch.

Not much point in me going into huge detail, this place must be THE most visited place in the northwest, which is apparent by the amount of litter and signs of recent damage, aswell as the theft of some of the fixtures that were there not to long ago.

Anyway, opened after the war (1956ish) as a site to deal with USAF people flying in and out of the uk through burtonwood, not active or even open in WW2 as so many say it was in their reports..
