Airfield peri-track
Broken-up concrete surface of the perimeter track at the disused aerodrome of Montrose. This, the oldest military airfield in Scotland, was opened for the Royal Flying Corps in 1913 and used by historic aircraft types such as Maurice Farmans, BE2s, SE5As, Avro 504s and Sopwith Camels throughout WW1. It reopened in 1936 and was used during WW2 as a pilot training airfield with some operational sorties by Hurricane fighters and Coastal Command Anson and Hudson aircraft. The RAF left shortly after the war ended, it was used occasionally by civil light aircraft until the 1990s but now no longer functions as an airfield.
It is also well known as being haunted by the ghost of an Irish RFC pilot who was killed in an accident during WW1.
