Great Harrowden
GREAT HARROWDEN: Private airstrip (Aka HOME FARM)
These pictures are from my Google Earth© derived database. Please note that not all of the locations listed in this 'Guide' are pinned on the database.
Operated by: R J Sanders (Farms) Ltd
Location: E of Great Harrowden village, about 1.75nm N of Wellingborough town centre
Period of operation: Not known? But 1967 certainly
NOTES: We have Mr Graham Frost, a great long-term friend of this 'Guide', to thank for pointing out this location. The Cessna 210D Centurion, G-ASPO (ex N3883Y), was registered to this address on the 7th September 1967. and crashed and was written off at Rotherthorpe near Northampton, on the way back here, on the 6th December 1967.
Presumably a well laid out strip was prepared, but we do not know where on the farm. Also, was G-ASPO the only aircraft registered to this company and based here? If anybody can kindly offer advice, this will be much appreciated.
We'd love to hear from you, so please scroll down to leave a comment!
