HEMSBY: Military airstrip
Aerial view
Note: This recent picture was obtained from Google Earth ©
Military user: Used by RAF Lysanders in 1940
Location: In Hemsby which is roughly 6nm NNW of Great Yarmouth
NOTES: An Army barracks during WW2, on the site of an existing holiday camp known as Hemsby Holiday Centre. Today known as Hemsby Beach Holiday Park.
I imagine that the Lysanders weren't based here, but called in during Army co-operation exercises. If anybody can kindly offer advice this will be most welcome.
