Former RAF Seighford / 6th Gear Car Driving Experience, Seighford Built in 1942 as a satellite/relief landing ground for RAF Hixon, 7.5 miles (12.1 km) to the east. It is currently used as a car driving experience day. I was there to lap in an Audi R8 / Aston Martin Vantage V8 Roadster / Lamborghini Gallardo LP570-4 Superleggera.. Good fun :)

Disused runway of Seighford airfield, Staffordshire Looking south-west to the end of the runway. The outline of the original concrete slabs making up the runway can be seen in the pattern of weeds and raised parts of the surface (or by looking on Google Earth). This part was used for HGV (trucks) and PSV (buses and coaches) training. There were portable offices on-site. All that remains are some abandoned traffic cones

Delorean Car and Seighford Hall The owner of this Delorean car had just bought it and was photographing it in front of the now Derelict Seighford Hall. It was too good an opportunity to miss, so out came the camera, the owner said it was ok to use the pictures as long as I blanked out the plate. Seighford Hall is late 15th century with three gables but has large additions from the Victorian period. At the present time it stands empty, which is a great shame for such a superb building.
