not Wittering but norwichpaul has it with his spaced out answer. The aerodrome at "Ken Ley" had some of its hangars removed to make way for the new runways just before hostilities. The German Luftwaffe demolition teams removed another and a fire in the 1970s the final one. To my mind it is one of the best preserved landing areas in near wartime layout and being in Greater London area all the more amazing.
Over to norwichpaul.

Kenley is quite a special airfield in that respect Peter, and I have flown from there too!

I have a Christmas card somewhere from RAF Stoney Cross. Either 1945 or 46. A memento my mum gave to me.
It is easy if you know it but the lack of anything there would make it tough for others.
Another PNK special here. This is part correct and part guesswork, the runways being the guessed bit. It is orientated correctly.

Ah just seen the bit about guesswork on the runways, it could therefore be North Coates.
