Holloway Farm
Note: This map only gives the position of Holloway Farm itself.
HOLLOWAY FARM: Private airstrip
Note: The first picture only shows my guess of where the airstrip/landing area may have been? Reason being that this field shows clear signs of it not being used for agriculture.
Location: Roughly SE of Shillingstone on the A357, about 5nm NW of Blandford Forum
Period of operation: ?
Runway: ?
NOTES: As can be seen almost nothing is known, and, I now cannot remember where this reference came from. A look at Google Earth (image 2017) shows no evidence of a prepared strip in this area - not that one is needed. Possibly used by microlights for a short period? But, the Taylor Monoplane, G-BDEV, came to grief here in 1996. See the AAIB report.
If anybody can kindly offer advice, this will be most welcome.
