HArry at the airfield gate
Another Walk on Eye Airfield, Eye, Suffolk - 14th March 2021
It's time for another lockdown walk across Eye Airfield, built as a USAF base in World War II and which became operational in 1944. After Harry twists his ankle after running around on some new BMX ramps in the woods, we end up in Eye, and walk back to the car via Victoria Hill.

Isobel and Harry head off onto the airfield
Fred waves a magnet on a string around
Harry goes the hard way around
Harry hangs on the gate
Isobel contemplates the wind turbines
On one of the former taxiways
The boys climb a crushed-concrete hill
Harry runs past the random junk shed
There's a derelict boat
An abandoned container rusts away
Discarded agricultural machinery on the airfield
One of the old perimeter roads
Fred picks something up
A puddle demonstrates perfectly how waves form
Harry finds some old rope to wave around
Harry with a bit of old rope
Inside the old Fuze store
Fred's picked up some rusty iron
There's a discarded sewing machine on the floor
Another view of the fuze store's insides
Fred finds some more old metal
Harry walks back from the fuze store
Harry and Fred
Someone called Willow has been carving trees
Fred's up a tree
There's a bit of railway track stuck in the ground
Harry in a tree
Fred and Harry on the boardwalk
Thousands of Scarlet Elf Cups have appeared
The Elf Cup mushrooms are everywhere along the path
There's a discarded car tyre in the stream
Fred stands on top of a new dirt ramp
Harry twists his ankle so has to be carried
Old shops and the fire station on Magdalen Street
Broad Street in Eye
Further up Broad Street
The carbuncle that is the Town Hall
Harry and Fred return from a trip to the Blue shop
Isobel roams around Broad Street
The big house on the end of Cross Street
The reconditioned 1930s bus stop
The big house on Lambseth Street
The gang walks up Lambseth Street
Googly eyes stuck onto a recycling container
The path up to Highfield
There's a bleached bird skeleton in a fallen nest
We walk on e the field behind Victoria Hill
Farm buildings
Back on the airfield
A pile of discarded metal
More airfield junk
Harry's back on the crushed-concrete hill
A view from the top of the hill
Isobel wanders off across the airfield
The mystery piles of tree stumps
The gang wanders off past the tree stump pile
Back at the car on Progress Way
