The old WW2 Airfield south of Wombleton still has most of its runways intact after 60 years. This large building seems to have evolved from the original hangars. At one time it housed a factory making micro-light aircraft, a planning notice at the gate says an application is in hand to convert it from a 'Potato store' to a factory making wood fuel pellets.
