Lighthorne Heath was mainly constructed to house the officers and men operating the adjacent airfield at Gaydon. The airfield has closed and the services have moved out so the village is now a civilian village. This northern part is more secluded and was used to house the officers. The American Air force used the ex-officer houses before they were sold to private individuals.
