RAF St Davids, Pembrokeshire

During World War Two St Davids Airfield was the scene of constant activity as a RAF Coastal Command base engaged in the Battle of the Atlantic. The RAF used Pembrokeshire as a base for air operations over the Atlantic, where supply convoys were under constant threat of U-Boat attack.
One of eight airfields in the county, St Davids was opened in the summer of 1943. It had three runways from which bombers were flown on maritime patrols. Squadrons of Fortress, Halifax and Liberator bombers all flew from the airfield

Much of the site is fenced off for agricultural use, but a footpath runs across the runaway to the far perimeter track and hard standings. We parked when the yellow pin is adgacent to some farm buildings. Theres an offiial walk round much of the airfield here

Seems to be an airfield building, but no one around to ask

Perimeter track now a minor road, with some hard standing still present

Following the inner perimeter track anticlockwise

What look like 1940's Seagull tracks in the concrete!

The main runway running North West to South East with an earth barrier to keep you to the footpath which runs parallel.
