Looking across Milne Park
In 1930 an application was made for the use of a field at Addington as a private aerodrome. Croydon Corporation objected on environmental grounds but they were overruled by the Minister of Health. The Air Ministry sanctioned the use of the field in 1932. While the airfield operated it was used by the transport firm that owned it to train their pilots. An air pageant was held at the aerodrome in 1933, when aerobatics, parachute jumping, and wing walking were included on the list of entertainments. The field was not used during the Second World War and the company that owned it eventually moved to Gatwick to continue their business. Milne Park is all that now remains of the aerodrome as the adjacent land has been developed for housing and local amenities.
The land was acquired by the Council for housing but it was declared Green Belt Land and appropriated as public open space in 1963. It is now the largest open space in the southern half of New Addington.
