I can't cos I don't know the place myself, but it's nice to see an authority taking it seriously, good luck in making the grade and the only advice I can give you is to get out on a treader and ride round and round one area at a time making mental notes of what you see, might take a few weeks but once you have learned it you'll be flying through to a badge. |

If you go to the primary school not far from the RAF base, and lift the drainage grill directly outside the main gate, you may find the half crown I lost there in 1961
