RAF Methwold

Royal Air Force Methwold or more simply RAF Methwold is a former Royal Air Force station located 2.1 miles (3.4 km) north east of Feltwell, Norfolk and 10.9 miles (17.5 km) north west of Thetford, Norfolk, England.

Vickers Wellington bombers from Feltwell continued to use the site as a satellite base until the grass airfield was transferred to No.

Following this work, RAF Methwold was a higher standard base than its parent at Feltwell.

43 aircraft either failed to return or crashed during the operations from RAF Methwold; 25 Venturas, 6 Stirlings, and 12 Lancasters.
