Frost Hill Farm





FROST HILL FARM: Forced Landing Ground later Advanced Landing Ground
 

Location: About 1nm N of Quidhampton on the B3051 about 4nm W of Basingstoke town centre
 

NOTES: Allocated it seems as a Forced Landing Ground in 1940/41 by aircraft from RAF ODIHAM. In 1942 supplied with wire mesh runways and re-designated as an ALG  (Advanced Landing Ground).

Not known to have been used? It seems the site was cleared up after WW2 but is still used by AAC helicopters from MIDDLE WALLOP?

According to John Nichol's book "SPITFIRE", some ATA women did land at a field with a dispersal building, at Whitchurch Hampshire, due to bad weather! The only one I can think this could have been is Frost Hill Farm which is about 3 miles from my home in Overton. I would love to know more about this place. Please tell me all you know. Many thanks, John
