Second World War 1939-1945, RAF - Royal Air Force
Temporary airfield (Advanced Landing Ground) built in 1944 to support the D-Day Landings. It was used only for a few months and then closed in 1945. Nothing but the field and an outlying generator house survives today. There is also a memorial in Coolham village to the airmen stationed here who lost their lives in the War.
