RAF Membury - Directions

Directions

The former technical site of RAF Membury can be reached by exiting the M4 Motorway at Exit 14, Baydon Road (A338) and proceeding north from the interchange approximately 1/4 mile to the B4000 interchange and turning left (Northwest). Proceed along the B4000 (Emlin Street/Baydon Road) approximately 6 miles paralleling the motorway to an unnamed road, just prior to the Membury Services facilities. Turn left, and cross on a bridge over the motorway, which will take you to the former technical site, now an industrial estate (Membury Business Park) which is on the south side of the motorway.

A T-2 hangar will be on your right once you cross over the motorway bridge. A second T-2 hangar will also be on your right about 1/2 mile further down the road still in the industrial estate. A road to the right (a part of the former perimeter track), just past the second T-2 has a loop dispersal hardstand. The remaining airfield runways appear to be on private land to the west of the industrial estate, accessible from the former technical site by some narrow roads.

Famous quotes containing the word directions:

    My friend devotes himself to his life, whenever he can find the spare time. His motto is: ‘Don’t just sit there: live!’ So he’s too busy to stand, to walk, to do anything, except to live. He even refused to kiss a girl, when invited, on the grounds that it was time again to be living. Schedules are sacred to him.
    Marvin Cohen, U.S. author and humorist. The Self-Devoted Friend, New Directions (1967)

    What do you think of us in fuzzy endeavor, you whose directions are sterling, whose lunge is straight?
    Can you make a reason, how can you pardon us who memorize the rules and never score?
    Gwendolyn Brooks (b. 1917)

    The cannon thunders ... limbs fly in all directions ... one can hear the groans of victims and the howling of those performing the sacrifice ... it’s Humanity in search of happiness.
    Charles Baudelaire (1821–1867)
