This aerial picture taken October 2003
shows the RAF Lyneham main gate. The main A3102 Lyneham
to Calne road runs right to left across the top of the
image and Eider Avenue joins from the two houses in
the top right hand corner, left looping down to the
junction where the road continues in another anti-clockwise
loop.
The Cotswold stone coloured cottage that is on the
main A3102 running centrally through the image is Hobbs
Cottage, which used to be the residence of the Officer
Commanding Administrative Wing prior to private sale.
The right hand adjoining building used to be a bakery
too.
The large white aircraft in the top right corner is
a Comet Transport aircraft standing as a gate guardian
to the entrance. It is clearly visible from the main
road. |
