High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! RAF Old Buckenham is a former World War II airfield in England. The field is located 2 miles (3.2 km) SE of Attleborough in Norfolk, and is currently in civilian use as Old Buckenham Airport. Old Buckenham airfield was built during 1942-43 for the United States Army Air Forces Eighth Air Force. It was given designation USAAF Air Station 144. The airfield was opened in late 1943 and was used by the 453rd Bombardment Group (Heavy) , arriving from March Field, California on 23 December 1943. The 453d was assigned to the 2nd Combat Bombardment Wing, and the group tail code was a "Circle-J". With the end of military control Old Buckenham has largely been converted back to agriculture with much of the concrete areas being ground into aggregate and being sold in the Norwich area. Today a single-bay perimeter track remains and one small section of full-width runway which is used by crop spraying aircraft in the 1970s and 80s and is now part of a 100-acre (0.40 km2) airfield site.
