RAF Langham Dome BHQ & Control Tower
Abandoned city crew out on another explore
Royal Air Force Langham or more simply RAF Langham is a former Royal Air Force station, located 27.2 miles North-West of Norwich, Norfolk, England, from 1940 to 1961. The airfield was the most northerly of the Norfolk wartime RAF airfields and its position, being just 3.3 miles from the North sea at Blakeney.
made it a desirable location to be used by Coastal Command[1] which had come into prominence since the outbreak of the Second World War. Originally the base was built as a dispersal and satellite station to RAF Bircham Newton during the first few months of the war and it became operational in the summer of 1940
The airfield was originally laid out with three grass runways when it opened as a satellite station for RAF Bircham Newton in 1940. The station became fully self-supporting in 1942, when it was upgraded with three concrete runways (tar-covered), 3 T2 type and 4 Blister hangars, encircling perimeter track and 36 spectacle-shape hardstandings, plus a Type 12779/41 control tower and normal Mk 2 approach lighting for night operations.
Primarily used by Coastal Command of the RAF throughout hostilities it was placed on Care and Maintenance in 1947, but reactivated during the Korean War. It was later used as an emergency landing strip for RAF Sculthorpe, before final closure in 1961.
The station was purchased by Bernard Matthews, who constructed turkey sheds on the runways. The turkey farm is now operated by another farmer, but the construction of the sheds has preserved large sections of the runways

Langham BHQ, Norfolk
A very short video of Langham BHQ in Norfolk.
Built around 1941 for the RAF base there, I noticed this little bunker on the Defense of Britain close to Stiffkey where we were staying. It has to be one of the best preserved Battle Headquarters I have visited - dry, clean, with some original features remains.
Careful if you go in the Summer. There was a WASP nest inside, and close by my partner got set upon by a swarm of them.
