RAF Flowerdown

RAF Flowerdown

RAF Flowerdown was an RAF base situated in Hampshire, England.

The RFC Wireless School moved from Farnborough to Flowerdown, later RAF Flowerdown in 1919. The apprentice training school moved from Flowerdown to Cranwell in 1929 and the RNAS moved into Flowerdown which remained as a wireless station until 1956. It was never an airfield but it was bombed twice in one week.
