a re-visit as i was in the area, had a mooch round here early 2007 with my dad on a cold wintery morning he was a bit on edge and wasnt up for venturing to far in so thought i would take a propper look around
a massive chunk of the woodland has been cleared where theres some ancient earthworks, i was fearing the worst that the stanton shelters had been filled in
diving deeper into the undergrowth i kept coming across ATV tracks and pheasant feeders as the wood is now used for keeping game birds, almost walked into this blue thread/string/wire/laser which was a bit odd
finally came across one of the stanton shelter but while i was in there i heard an ATV type thing go whizzing past so soon got myself back onto the road
invisable (even to the Germans) the whole base was within woodland i think the horsa gliders operated from here
first pill box type look out right ext to the road
the clearing, you can see the ditch which is from the ancients......and a look out post i expect for shooting
the blue laser??
the shelters at saltby are amazingly clean as there so hidden away, no empty beer cans no graff
