| Located in North Lincolnshire, about 3 miles North-West of Immingham. North Killingholme had only a brief operational life span, being open between 1943-1945 and takes its name from the nearby village immediately East of the site.
Today, most of the old tech site buildings have been demolished to make way for an industrial estate, though a few do still remain. Some of which are in use for farm storage, but most are now derelict and probably won't be around much longer. The airfield has gone back to farmland, though the perimeter track and runways are still mostly intact. All 3 original hangers are still standing and used for industrial purposes and farm storage. Bits and pieces of the former domestic sites can be found around the village, though these have mostly been demolished. A memorial to the old site can be found at the former main entrance, which is now the entrance to the industrial estate, just off East Halton road. The industrial estate appears to be constantly expanding, so its probably only a matter of time before the entire East side is completely redeveloped. |
