Thank you; and apologies - that's the image I meant.

Curious. I'm struggling but here is another photo that shows more of the
surroundings. I'll keep poking around.

[Talk-gb-westmidlands] Hay Mills Rotor Station

2019-10-19 Thread Andy Mabbett
I'm trying to pinpoint the former location of Hay Mills Rotor Station:

   https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hay_Mills_Rotor_Station

a helidrome that operated in south Birmingham from June 1951 to
January 1954. The coordinates I have used in that article are an
estimate, based on the photo seen there, and recollections found in
online forums.

I've looked at all the aerial imagery I can access in JOSM, but can see no sign.

Can anyone find a trace on some other set of imagery, or an old map?
