The fragile document has to be carefully preserved
An abandoned World War Two flight operations block in Lincolnshire has been given permission to become a £375,000 luxury holiday home.
The developers said the designs would “riff” off the surrounding industrial farming landscape and military buildings.It includes simple timber framed ‘plug-ins’ that will be constructed in a nearby WW2 air hangar and transported to site on the client’s combine harvester. The phrase ‘Take it Easy’ will be written on timber panelling on the entrance door. It was originally painted on the nose-cone of the client’s grandfather’s aeroplane.“The Operations Block was the nerve centre of the airfield, with rooms for cypher, weather reporting and the large operations room where men and women who worked on the ground directed the station’s pilots into combat,” said the developers.
