Summary
[edit]
| Description |
English: Site of Main Runway at Former Polebrook Airfield Polebrook airfield was sold off by early 1967 and the St Ives Sand & Gravel Company removed most of the runway concrete for sale to the Cambridge hardcore market. This view down the farm trackway is where the SW-NE main runway existed and shows about one quarter of the full runway length. Much of the area shown in this view is given over to public access. The airfield's war memorial pictured in the adjoining grid square TL1086 is at the end of the runway beneath the tall poplar trees ahead. |
