What is recorded here
Flimston Airstrip cuts across the Castlemartin Ranges in Pembrokeshire, a modern airfield saved in the national record. It is not a tourist trap or a public playground. The land holds itself back, waiting for someone who understands that visibility does not mean consent.
The National Monuments Record of Wales records Flimston Airstrip, Castlemartin Ranges as Airfield from the Modern period. The saved point comes from the official national record. Inclusion does not by itself mean that the public may enter the place.
Flimston Airstrip, part of the Castlemartin Ranges in Pembrokeshire, was developed by the British military during World War II as a training facility for the Royal Air Force. It is remembered for its role in the preparation of aircrews and its contribution to the Allied war effort.
