  • Get away from it all in literally the middle of no where
  • Brings back memories, I was there for 14 weeks in 1984, working on the new airhead, with my old man. It doesn't appear to have changed much. Is the pub still there on Green mountain?. We stayed at travellers hill, opposite the RAF camp.
