NEW FOREST AIRFIELDS IN WW2 : RAF STONEY CROSS

This video - an exploration of the site that was RAF Stoney Cross - is the first in a series of short videos where I visit the site of former RAF Airfields that were in existence during World War Two. (Apologies for the error in the text in this video - USAAF of course stands for United States ARMY Air Forces). Having visited three former WW2 RAF Airfields - at RAF Beaulieu, RAF Holmsley South & RAF Ibsley - during my series on "New Forest Walk" videos, I was keen to visit the sites of the other nine RAF airfields that were also in operation during World War Two. My objective was to visit each site & see what evidence was still there (if any) of it's former existence and to find out a little bit of the history behind the airfield. Rather than just stand by the side of a busy road & point the camera at an empty field (or industrial estate) and give a bland narration, I decided to produce the clips (between 2 to 5 minutes on each site) with a mixture of video footage interspersed with text, photos & background music. I must stress that I am not an expert or historian and so I apologise if I have made any mistakes with the facts (ie USAAF!) Please do correct any incorrect information by adding a comment. Indeed if you have any other information regarding the sites that you feel may be of interest to other viewers, then please feel free to comment. I really wanted to see what was still there at each site, after 75+ years, and to record it for the future. Please do check out all of the videos in the series.
