Some remnants of the WWII airfield remain, such as this ‘blister’ type aircraft hangar, one of a group of three to the north west side of the airfield. It and the airfield were constructed by the Royal Engineers over the winter of 1940-41.The type had standardised prefabricated components and it was designed to be quickly erected and dismantled.  This example, however, has now lasted in the one place for 77 years.
