This is my first post, so hope i get it right. Anyway i took some pics up at Grove airfield the other day and would like to share. I only have an old digi compact, so i know they are not brill.
The airfield was built in 1942 & was completed sometime in 1943.
These pics are taken in & around the operations block area.
