You are now approaching an area of former air-force ancillary buildings and modern metal structures, now known as Shepherds Grove Industrial Estate West. Good use has been made of the former military area and buildings though many have been demolished over the years. Many others though have well exceeded their original life expectancies.

This section is a stretch of the arterial road towards the end of the airstrip. The old runway would have been on the left, now removed leaving poor soil, the topsoil having been removed. This area is now well populated by wildlife including owls, buzzards and deer.
