RAF Castletown / Thurdistoft is due to be recognised with a permanent memorial marker. "The Airfields of Britain Conservation Trust was established to acknowledge the enormous and unique contribution airfields have made in numerous spheres since 1909. A memorial is intended to be erected at each known disused airfield site in Britain in order to provide a permanent reminder for future generations. Historical information will be made publicly available and facilities provided to allow new factual details to be collated." The Airfields of Britain Conservation Trust aim to install 400 markers across the UK by 2030. http://www.abct.org.uk/airfields/airfield-finder/castletown/

If you haven't made it to Mary Ann's Cottage yet, this week is your last chance for this year. It's well worth a visit. A beautifully preserved croft, with enthusiastic and well informed volunteers to show you around.
