This hand drawn map of RAF Lyneham
1950, shows the way things have changed with main entrance
to the station. The original entrance was via a turn-off,
marked point A, from the main Lyneham to Chippenham
road, down a little sunken road the turn left at point
B passing the orchard on your left then a short distance
to the main gate.
This drawing is with special thanks
to Mr Jim Newman. If you would like to read an interesting
account of Jim's bygone memories of the station
