Southgrove
Note: This map only gives a rough position within the UK.
SOUTHGROVE: No.47 Satellite Landing Ground
Military user: Intended for use by 5MU
Location: Roughly 6nm NNE of RAF NETHERAVON and 5.5nm SSE of RAF OVERTON HEATH
Period of operation: 1941?
NOTES: Another rare example, it seems, of 'all dressed up' but no party to go to. 5MU were based at RAF KEMBLE and used other sub-sites as SLGs such as BEECHWOOD PARK and RAF BERROW. Presumably the site had been surveyed and approved as it appears in several records.
We'd love to hear from you, so please scroll down to leave a comment!
