Spite Hall Farm
SPITE HALL FARM: Private airstrip (Aka PINCHINTHORPE)
Note: All four of these pictures were obtained from Google Earth ©
Location: W of the A173, S of the A171, just SW of Pinchinthorpe village, 3nm WSW of Guisborough town centre and about 6nm SE of Middlesborough town centre
Period of operation: 1990s (?) to -
Runway(s): This is rather interesting looking at the Google Earth © pictures. And really quite unusual.
In the 2001 picture it appears it was: 10/28 310 grass
However, the 2008 picture appears to show three possible strips, all parallel to each other. The strips to the N and S being 345 metres long. The northernmost seeming to be the better defined strip.
2018: 10/28 450 grass
NOTES: I have to thank Mr Karel Adams, a great friend of this 'Guide' for pointing this site out in September 2020. As always, if anybody can kindly offer more advice, this will be most welcome.
Later I was told by Mr Graham Frost, another great friend of this 'Guide', that the Luton LA5 Major G-ARAD, was registered to this address from 18.01.95 until 16.10.02. As has been the Piper L5A Cub Cruiser, G-BRIL (ex N35183), from the 28th November 2007.
