RAF Bacton was a First World War landing field, built to accommodate aircraft intercepting Zeppelin bombers.
Hangar
A hangar from RAF Bacton was relocated to North Walsham after the closure of the airfield, where it became a garage workshop. This building was damaged in high winds,[1] but an attempt to save the roof failed to salvage the structure, which was demolished in April 2007.[2]
