Owner's description suggests it's on NE face of long barn, c. 10m from N angle. However, no FB at this location. Heap of muck covers first 5m or so: I suspect it's behind this (or I misinterpreted his description). He recalled a lady visiting previously … seemed a bit bemused by the interest.

Middle Barn is now Ailstone Farm on LR map. By entrance to red brick barn. Approached by footpath from the N and perimeter track from WW2 airfield. Farmer interested and very friendly.
