"Frying Pan" Dispersal

One of two circular dispersals dating from when the airfield was built in 1943, approached by a short offshoot from the peri-track at the north end. Having a diameter of around 130 ft (40 m), it is the sole survivor of the two, its outline is still visible from the air. Google Earth view: LinkExternal link
