History of this Location | |
Opened as an RAF station in Sep 1932. The main part of the RAF station closed in 1992 and in 2016 the RAF Gliding School closed as well, ending routine flying operations.
The base is now in the hands of the Royal Logistic Corps as Dalton Barracks but the area is still used from time to time as a landing ground for helicopters on exercise.
