UK Airfield
You Are Here: Home | Getting Here
Great Oakley Airfield is based on a farm in the North East corner of Essex, 5 miles to the West of the old town of Harwich.
The best way to find the airfield by car, regardless of your starting point, is to take the A12 to COLCHESTER then head towards HARWICH on the A120. Continue on the A120 all the way to WIX where you would ignore the FIRST right turn to WIX (to avoid driving through the village) and taking the SECOND right turn into HARWICH ROAD. A short way in, take the first left into OAKLEY ROAD and continue to the junction of WIX ROAD bearing left onto SCHOOL ROAD. Drive a short distance until you see the sign for Great Oakley Airfield.
Once on the grounds continue to follow the path, left past the lake until you reach the Airfield.
