He describes it thus: Greenford Green* was located on a small hill (not far from Northolt Airfield) and had a large array of ariels suspended between several high …

Costs have increased again

Posted on 19/01/202315/11/2024 by Ian Davies

As you might expect the costs of running the site have increased again and I have funded this from my own pocket with some support form friends and well wishers along with the good folk at Greatworth Park. I can no longer keep this site running in its current form and with its current costs …

Password Reset Emails

Posted on 03/04/202103/04/2021 by Ian Davies

There has been a long standing issue with verification emails and password reset emails which it has taken me some time to track down but I believe that I have now resolved the issues.

The Road to the Barracks

Posted on 01/04/202101/04/2021 by Ian Davies

When Philip did the earlier aerial videos for us the one bit he didn’t really get was the route down to the old barracks. I now own my own little drone having gotten the bug whilst trying to get the earlier footage so yesterday I was able to get a small flight from the edge …

Keeping the Site up

Posted on 02/12/202002/12/2020 by Ian Davies

I developed this site at very short notice and tried to keep all the functionality that Martin had built into his original site over the years. For expediency I chose to use what I considered the most simple and straightforward options at the time and this came at a cost. In 2018 I paid this …
