Soon after the outbreak of the war the airfield was requisitioned. From April 1941 to March 1944, the airfield was used by the Operational Training Unit to train Canadian crews with Wellingtons. During the war the airfield was attacked three times by the Luftwaffe. From 1957 to 1978, the site was used by the Royal Radar Establishment. Today the airfield is disused, however, the site is used by a number of businesses.
