RAF Newton Nottingham Aug 09

Went here with shadow (thanks alot mate) after some absailing off a bridge nearby and time was running low so only a quick trip

start of the day me petrified going off a railway bridge








really weird as a concrete wall with doors painted on with real hinges think for training rounds














turned out to be a good day apart from me sliding down a railway side into a blackberry bush

Ouch thats the Joy of Old Railways for you Diehard! Try Nettles that sting your Backside!

Take it the bridge was part of the dis-used cotgrave entension line.

Good pics of the ammunition storage area and the bit that was latter converted for training use. Don't often see it mentioned in visits.
