Absolutely gutted to hear today that the gaol in Oakham may close in 3 months. Was such a good site and ran really well on all my visits. Will miss this place. Hopefully it lasts longer than Jan and the rolling notice keeps extending.

Always sad to hear of sites closing or being on notice to close. It sucks how the cost of living has hit airsoft.

Definitely does suck. Especially when they are good sites. The hobby has really shrunk in respect to sites available in my local area. When I started 15 years ago I had around 5 sites in a 10 mile radius that has now shrunk to 2. Always regret not getting some some sites before they went for good, like the mall I always wanted to try that but sadly it closed in the 8 years i was away from the game. 

 
Rolling notice period, sounds like another housing estate or blocks of flats going up, just waiting on the go ahead ?

This does not seem to be related to the cost of living; it is most likely due to plans to develop the site.

 
Damn, Gaol is a genuinely unique and interesting site. Been on my bucket list to head down there for a while, but it's a real yomp from here to there.

Always a pain when a site is mile away from you. Takes me just over a hour and 10 to get there. But it is a great site for sure.
