Auderville (in French pronounced as /odɛʁvil/) is a former commune on the north coast of the Manche department in the Normandy region in northwestern France. On 1 January 2017, it was merged into the new commune La Hague.[2]
On 22 February 1941, an RAF reconnaissance Spitfire aircraft from RAF Benson in south Oxfordshire with Flying Officer William Kenneth Manifould (28 June 1918 - 10 April 1941) of No. 1 Photographic Reconnaissance Unit RAF spotted the Freya radar nearby.[3]
The commune contains four villages, Goury, Laye, La Valette and La Roche, as well as a lighthouse. It is separated from Alderney by the Raz Blanchard, and has a small and not easily accessible port at Goury.
