Stoney Cross dispersal

The concrete dispersals that extend into the fringes of Ocknell Enclosure and used to house World War Two planes found post war utility as hard standing for campers and caravans. Stoney Cross used to have dozens of these dispersal pads, now less than ten remain, these 6 and 2 more in South Bentley Enclosure. If you know where to look in Ocknell Enclosure and Bolderwood Walk there are a few pieces of American wartime graffiti, it could be that one of their planes stood in the enclosures shade.
