ABANDONED RAF AIRFIELD DISCOVERY | RAF North Witham – The Forgotten D-Day Base
In this video, I explore the abandoned remains of RAF North Witham — one of Britain’s most overlooked World War II airfields. Hidden between Grantham and Stamford, this former RAF base played a critical but forgotten role in the D-Day landings.
During 1944, the site was taken over by the United States Army Air Forces, becoming a major Tactical Air Depot and a key launch point for the aircraft supporting the Normandy invasion. Paratroopers, supply aircraft, maintenance crews, and transport operations all passed through this quiet corner of Lincolnshire.
Today the airfield is still open to the public — and the runways, taxiways and wartime structures still remain, slowly being reclaimed by nature. I take you around the forgotten control areas, the overgrown concrete, and what’s left of one of Britain’s most important WWII bases.
