Google Earth thread!

I still think RAF Wyton is the best example of date confusion. The area north of the main runway is a decade later than the bit to the south. As I said before, it's difficult to complain when it's free. Chronology adds to the fun or am I just odd that way?

RAF Denton south of Northampton now shows up as does Yardley Chase depot complete with all the internal railways.

Funnily enough the bit around Yardley chase is new to me. This area is still confusing me as the Bombing range at Lavendon replaced the Yardley Chase one. Lavendon was still under construction in 1944 so Yardley Chase must have closed in 1944. Is this the site of the munitions storage. OS 1:25000 series showed a tower at SP8573854625, I wonder if that was one of the quadrants or would the depot have had towers anyway?
