kjfitz's picture Is this actually the RAF base? In LL it looks like a grand avenue of trees and a manor house that probably pre-dates air travel.

Parabellum's picture Yeah, Akeman Street was a 'relief landing ground' for RAF Little Rissington. Not really a full RAF base. Probably just a grass strip or two.

The alee and obelisk are part of Blenheim Palace.
