There were originaly 6 hangars 3 on either side of chalk lane each measuring 170ft by 70ft.In its time it was the largest airfield in britain.When the airfield closed all the buildings were auctioned off and some are still in use including West Acre village hall which was an old mess hut.For more information on this you can visit narboroughhistory.org.uk
