Fields by Rackheath This is the view from the Watch office across the flying field, looking towards a strip wood growing beside Muck Lane. The aerodrome's Skeet Shooting Range was situated in this field 9at left, roughly in mid-distance). Only a short section remains of the main runway and the land has long since reverted back to agriculture.

Spindle tree (Euonymus europaeus) The species growing in Great Britain is also a native of Western Siberia, North Africa, and the whole of Europe from Sweden and Scotland to the Caucasus. Its popular names in English as well as in French and in German, "Spindle-tree," "Fusain" and "Spindelbaum," all refer to the use of its wood for the manufacture of handspindles, a usage which still prevails where hand-spinning survives as an industry.
