Please forgive me engaging in a spot of necromancy, but having discovered this old thread it seemed to me to be the ideal place to ask if anyone has, or can direct me to sources of, information concerning the apparently shortlived Hastings (East Sussex) municipal aerodrome at Pebsham. Although it was planned as early as 1934, it does not appear to have opened until 1948 and one source refers to it as a "former aerodrome" by as soon as 1952. However, incongrously, I have found another reference, in 1957, which suggests that Hastings Borough Council were then planning to extend and develop the airfield. Today the site is, I understand, football pitches. Can anyone tell me more about this little known and long since abandoned airfield?
