A number of buildings dating to this phase are also extant. During the Battle of Britain Royal Navy fighter aircraft used the base to protect Southampton and Portsmouth, but it was also sometimes used by fighters of Royal Air Force 11 Group, who were heavily engaged in the battle.
In the post-war period the base was mainly used for training. After closure in the Ministry of Defence retained ownership over the site, which hosts a number of civil aircraft bodies and the Hampshire Constabulary's aviation section. The site is now a Conservation Area, comprising acres of buildings and acres of the former flying field.
The airfield was established in as a seaplane training school, initially as satellite of Calshot. The inherrent nature of historic records and using modern automated tools to extract information means there are bound to be issues. I will shortly be adding a 'report error' link to each record that can be used to flag an issue and will be queued up ready to be investigated and fixed.
I'm afraid as this is a personal project created in my own time, I cannot respond to individual requests right now. For information, questions and bug reports please contact James Morley jamesinealing [email protected].
Loading cemetery list. Loading list of dates. Loading parish list. About Whilst this personal project is just an attempt to explore the local legacy of the First World War, but at a global scale, it has struck me that it is much more than that.
At the heart of it is the legacy of those who died in the conflict, and especially the scale of the imapct that that would have had on their local communities, it would also never have been possible without the significant legacy created by those who remained, from the families who sent in photographs of their loved ones and which formed the Imperial War Museum's founding Bond of Sacrifice Collection, through the people who diligently compiled official records in the early s and which formed the Commonwealth War Graves Commission's records, right up to the modern-day professionals, volounteers and individuals who have shaped these records, shared them, and also significantly increased and enriched them, especially under the guise of First World War Centenary projects like Lives of the First World War Data and Sources This project simply wouldn't exist without the core assets that it draws on.
