Airfields of Britain

The Airfields of Britain Conservation Trust was established in 2006 to acknowledge the enormous contribution UK airfields have made since 1909.

@RobertJenrick Given too your newspaper article, very disappointing to say the least you did not even bother to reply to our press release concerning ABCT's memorial unveilings to Ossington and Winthorpe Airfields in your constituency in May 2022.

@timfarron Most disappointing, to put it mildly, that you did not attend ABCT's Cark Airfield memorial unveiling that same Saturday morning - you were notified, but we never even received any form of reply. Extremely disrespectful to the airfield and all concerned.

ABCT will be in southern Cumbria to unveil memorials to Cark (August 30) and Millom (August 31), both at 11 am, following considerable public demand - make sure to be there.

@mrsdgrif @guardspoloclub @RoyalAirForce @SkyNews We do not of course wish to accidentally sound rude, but are not only (a) saying precisely what has happened in more recent times but (b) pushing extremely hard to get this current situation resolved (which hopefully will now be very soon), hence as said watch this space.

@BBCWorldatOne A couple of serious elementary errors elsewhere in the interview. Famous British airfield Mildenhall is in Suffolk, not Norfolk, while no bomber would ever use an 'airport'. If this is supposed to be research...

Absolutely shameful what is happening today concerning Tollerton - this famous and highly regarded airfield both should and could have been saved.

Now one of Bicester's hangars on fire, following other recent fires at Old Sarum and Desborough - closely monitoring this situation, hugely worrying.

ABCT will be back in Northumberland, following general public demand, to unveil memorials to Acklington (May 10, 2 pm) and Brunton (May 11, 10.15 am) - make sure to be there.

The latest from Old Sarum... at the very least there should be a full and rigorous combined police and fire investigation to find out exactly what has happened - ABCT willing to help, if our assistance is requested.

ABCT will be in Cambridgeshire to unveil memorials to Oakington (March 28, 10.30 am) and Bourn (March 29, 12 noon) - already significant general public interest.

Help save Ossington, as ABCT is already trying to do, from huge new solar farm plans - the local populace not only hugely appreciate their airfield but simply do not want this plan to happen. Deadline for comments Thurs February 20.

Due to significant general public demand and interest, reposting the BBC article about ABCT and the Director General's involvement from five days ago.

At the unveiling of a memorial to Pulham Airfield in #Norfolk this morning. It’s one of many being marked by the charity @ABCTlive. You can now see this stone outside the @PennoyerCentre in Pulham St Mary (which also does a mean sandwich!) See more on @BBCLookEast at 1740.

[Airfields of Britain @ABCTlive]

@kirkj07 @PennoyerCentre @BBCLookEast Thanks very much Jenny for your time and interest this morning: please do keep in touch.

[Airfields of Britain @ABCTlive]

With Norfolk still in mind, many thanks to Laura Foster of BBC News for this excellent article about how ABCT's Kenneth Bannerman became involved with Britain's airfields 51 years ago and his eventual forming of the world's first national airfield charity.
