Send in a report CATERHAM-WILLEY PARK FARM SCRAPYARDSpotting InfoHead west out of Caterham on B2031 to Chaldon. At the Green Lane/Roffes Lane crossroads turn left on to Roffes Lane. Go round right hand bend, past Willey Lane on left and Badgers Wood on right. On the next long left bend there are two right turns next to each other, take the second right - Willey Farm Lane. At the end of the first field on the left is the scrapyard. You can walk along the bridleway and along the edge of the boundary field and look through the bushes and hedges to see the aircraft. There are also small knot holes in the fences. Friendly, but if you turn up unannounced there may not be anyone available to escort you round - necessary to ID all the fuselages. I don't have an email address yet but their phone number is 01883 340062 - this is already listed on several websites but if they wish their details to be removed please let me know.

No entrance fee but the museum does ask for a donation of £3.50 for adults and £2 for children. A small price to pay to look after these gems and well worth it. They also advise calling/emailing/faxing before you visit to ensure someone is available to show you all aspects of the museum and the exhibits. The aircraft are also listed at Demobbed Museum Exhibits and Demobbed Yard Exhibits Last reported August 2012. Want to update or confirm the information is still correct? Send in a report CHARLWOOD SCRAPYARDSpotting InfoTake the Russ Hill road out of Charlwood and then an angled right turn onto Glovers Road before the end of the houses and Aerospace Logistics is on the left. If you pass the windmill you've gone too far. Apparently all can be seen from Glovers Road but as well as the 2 almost complete aircraft there are fuselages and cockpits and other bits and pieces so contacting in advance may get you a tour, full log with information and serials - could someone please advise if Aerospace Logistics are happy with visitors and tours?

Some aircraft are visible from the road. Heading east along M25: Exit J9 head north on A243, strip is on right after 1-2 miles. Go up and over a hill, and on the descent there is a small entrance on the right. The best marker for the entrance is the lamppost or telegraph pole, with a green board notice on it. If you see a BP garage on the right, you've gone too far. Drive down the narrow track until you reach the farmhouse, and ask there. Heading west along M25: Exit J9, take 3rd exit at roundabout (dual carriageway) to take you under M25. At next roundabout turn right onto A243 (north), directions as above.
