Location is within RAF Honington and is therefore inaccessible. Suspect this has probably gone as grid reference places this within a location occupied by a quite a modern looking hanger

Entrance to RAF Honington
Aerial Photo Grid reference places the location where the edge of a modern hanger now is (highlighted by a red circle)

Location should be at SE corner of large hanger. Should be on eg a low wall or similar structure. Nothing visible from road. Possibly lost to hanger construction.

Bing aerial
Location should be next to hanger. No suitable structure visible
