After a morning looking at Airbase sites and ROC posts in Northamptonshire with mattdonut, I set off with Mr Sam to take another look at RAF Newton. Been there about 4 or 5 times now, but theres still new stuff to see :)

Before it closed RAF Newton was the training school for RAF/MOD Police and police dog handlers.Hence the large number of kennels and enclosures.It looks like this new outfit have made good use of the old facilities for their own training needs.

Unusual and interesting place:)

i never saw up that end! is it to the left of the old conrtol tower?
 
Cool stuff left behind, I wonder who really was the suicide bomber in the pic:confused:
