RAF Fiskerton Dispersed Accommodation Sites

These sites were mainly to the east and south east of the airfield, dispersed to prevent casualties
if the Luftwaffe bombed the airfield.

Hall road, leading off Ferry road to the east of Fiskerton village was also used for access to these
dispersed sites, Sites: 4 Communal, Sites: 5 to 8 Ground Crew Quarters and Site: 9 Sick
Quarters. The WAAF's Quarters was located in Fiskerton village opposite the church and Sites: 10
and 11 (Aircrew) Quarters were located outside the village on the Ferry road. Site: 13 was the
Sewage Plant and it was located between the Ferry road and the River Witham.
Accommodation was for a maximum of 2,300 persons.
The outline of most of Site: 1 (Main Airfield) can be identified on Ordnance Survey sheet 121. The
dispersed Sites to the east of Site: 4 appear on the map as small coppices and an excellent arial
view of all the sites is possible using Google Earth. Our tour around the Accommodation Sites
