I already have the location, having done a farm strip location, last year. It stands out very clearly in the Horizon scenery and even more so in the Earth version I'm currently testing.
What I'm interested in, because of what I can see on the footprint, is runway length and any conditions applying, etc. In the Earth version the narrowness you mention is even more noticeable than before. In both versions there seems to be a sort of hiatus, at the point where what I've assumed to be the two runways cross.
Apparently he's still having trouble with the neighbours. They stopped his planning application for a hangar but I don't suppose they can stop flying, under the 28 day rule.
One thing that intrigues me, bearing in mind the strip's height and distance from the coast, is an item that's clearly visible in GE and the scenery. A boat is parked part way along what I assumed to be a taxiway!
