Introduction.

As someone who has an interest in aviation history, I find myself fortunate to be living close to several World War 2 airfields. As most of them are now closed with many buildings demolished and some with runways removed, I have decided to make a pictoral record of what they look like at the turn of the 20th century before they decay any further.

In this website you will find mostly images; images of hangars, watch towers, technical site buildings, dispersal sites, 'interesting' strips of concrete, airmans married quarters, known favourite pubs, etc, and anything else that took my fancy.

Be sure to bookmark this site as I will be updating it on a regular basis, and look for links to other sites that may be of interest. Select any of the airfields listed to the left and enjoy what views I have of them so far.

This ancient website is being re-instated by request. I will be releasing the pages, images, links etc as each is checked for function and consistency. There is some loss of functionality with a few items until I have decided what to do next with that particular page, image, link etc. In other words 'Work in Progress' !

To all who have recently contacted me, thank you for your kind comments.

If you spot any broken links, please let me know.

If you were stationed at any of the airfields,and would like to see specific views not already included, then please contact me and I'll be happy to try and oblige.

Perhaps it may be a building of personal interest (eg place of work, Married Quarters, Mess etc). Let me know and I'll try and include a photo on the website.
