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.

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.
