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:
““Have we any control over being born?,” my friend asked in despair. “No, the job is done for us while we’re sleeping, so to speak, and when we wake up everything is all set. We merely appear, like an ornate celebrity wheeled out in a wheelchair.” “I don’t remember,” my friend claimed. “No need to,” I said: “what need have us free-loaders for any special alertness? We’re done for.””
—Marvin Cohen, U.S. author and humorist. The Self-Devoted Friend, New Directions (1967)
“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)
“Your bait of falsehood takes this carp of truth,
And thus do we of wisdom and of reach,
With windlasses and with assays of bias,
By indirections find directions out.”
—William Shakespeare (1564–1616)
