Leeming had a full V-Force dispersal site on the west side of the airfield. It could take 5 Vulcans on the dispersal hard standing and 1 on a loop at the end of the runway. There were 5-man accomodation caravans, shower/toilet block, recreational area, ops/planning room and kitchen and dining room. And the local pub over the fence and 500 yards down the road!

The site was regularly used for Sqn dispersal exercises, as well as those triggered by Group and STC. The dispersal ops, station ops and ATC were all wired up to the Bomber Controller.
