Royal Air Force Akeman Street or more simply RAF Akeman Street is a former Royal Air Force Relief Landing Ground located north east of Minster Lovell, Oxfordshire, England. It was named after the Roman road which crosses the airfield.
The airfield was a Relief Landing Ground (RLG) for RAF Brize Norton, with building starting in 1939 and opening on 10 July 1940.[1] Active flying stopped on 15 August 1945, and the site was closed on 1 February 1947.
Units that used the airfield were No. 2 Service Flying Training School RAF (2 SFTS)[2] from Brize Norton with Airspeed Oxford aircraft and then No. 6 (Pilots) Advanced Flying Unit RAF based at RAF Little Rissington (later became 6 SFTS) between 1942 and 1945.
Other unit posted to the site included a sub site of No. 3 Maintenance Unit RAF between 9 April 1938 and January 1947 and a sub site of No. 21 Heavy Glider Conversion Unit RAF.
A German bombing raid on Brize Norton on 16 August 1940 forced the Advanced Training Squadron to move to Akeman Street.[2]
The station closed on 1 February 1947.[3]
Little of the 10 Blister hangars and single large Bellman hangar remain today.[2]
