RAF Little Snoring
England
About
RAF Little Snoring opened in Norfolk in 1943 and, after a brief spell as a bomber satellite, became a night-intruder base in the special-duties No. 100 Group. From it the de Havilland Mosquitoes of Nos. 23 and 515 Squadrons ranged over occupied Europe by night, hunting German night-fighters and shooting up their airfields in support of the bomber stream. Flying continued for some years after the war; the airfield is still in use for light aviation, home to a flying group, with two wartime hangars and the control tower surviving.
