With the outbreak of war and the policy of, where possible, having a satellite airfield for each bomber station, Marham's Wellingtons found themselves dispersed the other side of the main road (the A1122 from Downham Market to Swaffham). This landing ground at Barton Bendish was obviously too close to home for further development and was abandoned in 1941 when a more suitable satellite became available."
