RAF Gaydon, Gaydon, Stratford-on-Avon, Warwickshire. Men carrying out construction work at Gaydon Airfield, pouring and levelling concrete during the concreting of a buildings footprint.
Work began on the construction of a new runway at Gaydon Airfield in early 1952. This was followed by a second contract for the construction of more than 100 Easiform and Air Ministry buildings. These included an air traffic control tower, five boiler houses, airmens huts, messes, and a N.A.A.F.I. The largest Easiform building on the site was a training centre, which had a floor area of almost 3, 000 square yards
