Back to beacon list.


Southend-on-Sea NDB SND, 26 June 2005.

We searched the surroundings of the airport in vain. So we asked for information on the whereabouts of the beacon at the airport. A map was consulted and we got the following route starting at the airport buildings:
At the exit of the parking go left. At the roundabout left, under the railway bridge, towards Rocheford. The road bends to the left and runs parallel to the railway. At the roundabout go straight on. Two hundred meter further on there is a crossing with a cul-de-sac on the left. Park near the end of the cul-de-sac. At the end of it there is a railway crossing for pedestrians.
Take care when crossing the railway lines. Now you are on a golf course. Go immediately left and walk to the fence of the airfield. Follow the fence to the right and after about 200 metre you will see the beacon.
Stay near the fence so you don’t disturb the golf players and also for your own safety, remember that flying golf balls are rock-hard!
