It's loading just fine, maybe you need to put a big ring around it for him.

Can someone give the location please, as the link provided just dumps me in the middle of a field. Pretty please?

Edit: found it, about 1.5 miles south south-west of where the link put me.

That;'s interesting, very close to my parents' place (in the village to the west) but I never knew that was there.

If you go slightly south east from there, many of the properties have less-than-permanent buildings on them and are usually fronted by massive wrought iron gates with a pair of horses heads either side. If you catch my drift.

Not viable from the Google earth image but if you go into the Google car image and look into the garden there is the airframe of a lynx in the middle of a wooden climbing frame. Not viable in a car due to the wall but first time I went passed there in an appliance I spotted it

Ha ha ha, given my earlier comments, this one is actually directly opposite my inlaws! 100 yards away max. What's going on?!?!

I actually stumbled through the middle of here accidentally one weekend when we were staying, I was walking the dogs back towards the inlaws' house and literally accidentally came across all of this. The (huge rambling) house itself is quite distant from where the planes and parts are. Apparently they get extremely jumpy with trespassers but I didn't see anyone and made my escape via a gap beside the security gates.

There are all sorts of rumours about the place based on both gangland stuff and also celebs; no idea whether any of it has any substance.

Last time I looked there were all manner of completely knackered cars & vans lying around outside the house, although nothing of any note (things like old Mondeos, Transits etc)


The house and the cars:
