Book excerpt: This is the story of Kent's Garden Airfield, so called because of its location on an escarpment, overlooking Hythe and Romney Marsh. An airfield born out of necessity during the First World War. Following 1918 many record-breaking flights began at Lympne. Flying continued into the early 1970s, but following closure, the airfield was developed and industrial units constructed, little remains today of this once important airfield.
