Where is this at RAF Cosford

Hi,

Looking at some of Shaun Schofield's excellent photos, can anybody confirm where the 'people' are located in the background of these two shots?

Looks like the Bowling club, but having watched my son play football on the pitch next to the club, cant believe its the same place. Would need binoculars to make out the cold war hangar plus its higher up than this, and unless this lens has done some magic in pulling the background closer its just to far away?

The first photo is the field to the right of the Albrighton Cricket Club, normally occupied by horses!

The second photo shows the bulidings of the Cricket clubhouse to the left and the floodlights of the Tennis Club courts on the right!

With a little bit of panning I'm sure Shaun would have been rooted in the same spot!

Cheers
Tim
