Farm track near Saltby Airfield This track leads to the north of Saltby airfield which is beyond the trees to the far right. The land here is over the Lincolnshire Limestone Formation and there are several limestone quarries, both operational and disused, in the area. Beneath the limestone is a bed of Northamptonshire ironstone which is near the surface in the lower terrain a few miles south west.

Hotel was lovely and the beds were comfortable. Really pleasant staff and would recommend the hotel. However wasn’t a fan of 5 WhatsApp messages plus Expedia messages from them think it was a bit too much. Apart from that everything else was great
