Stow Maries Aerodrome saved

Quote:
An aerodrome thought to be the last intact World War I airfield in Europe is to be restored thanks to a campaign by volunteers and a £1.5m grant.

It closed in 1919 and remained overgrown until 2009 when it was rediscovered by a group of enthusiasts.
See, not all news is bad. At least 24 original buildings still remain, it must've been a fantastic find.
