Just down the road from West Raynham is another former RAF airfield-turned-industrial-park however this is one that sits in stark contrast to the decayed beauty of West Raynham. RAF Sculthorpe is like a polar opposite - trashed, graffiti covered and very very bleak especially when it rains, like we found out. However it is still an enjoyable and relaxing place to explore, it reminded me a lot of the grottier parts of RAF Upper Heyford. Nobody seems to ever explore this place, and with West Raynham just down the road I can't exactly blame them but it was nice to squeeze in site #5 at the weekend before the long drive home.

It was horrible and rainy and we had a long drive home so headed off...may pop back in as and when I'm up at West Raynham again though.
 
Nature is slowly taking over this place. Sometimes graffiti can be quite nice on derelict buildings but not in this case.
 
I for one am glad you did squeeze it in Mook cause you got some lovely pics, the one of the steps descending into the undergrowth I especially liked, Sound Job, Thanks
