Summary

[edit]
Description
English: RADAR Spinney Birch Airfield. The picture was taken looking east from Blind Lane (seeTL9119), which was one of the secondary runways of Birch Airfield south west of Colchester. From the name the stand of trees is clearly on the site of the airfield’s RADAR installation. Birch Airfield was built so late in the war it never became fully operational as a fighter or bomber station however it was attacked twice by the Luftwaffe. The history of Birch Airfield can be found at http://www.birchairfield.co.uk The picture clearly shows the modern road surface on top of the concrete runway.
