Site of the former RAF Firbeck, opened in 1940 which spent much of WWII as a relief landing ground for training organisations; it was closed in 1948 and returned to agriculture. Firbeck Hall which occupied some of the land, was variously an officers mess, medical facility and location of the SYAM collection from the 1980s to 1999, when it began its move to Doncaster.
