You may be wondering why the slash exists between Beverley and Linley Hill in its name. Well, they’re one in the same, as it’s situated on Linleyhill Road, a tiny hamlet in open countryside that’s a 19-minute drive from Beverley town centre. Its origins go back over a century.

Initially known as Beverley Military Flight Station and later Beverley Landing Ground, its first period of operation was during World War I, from 1915 to 1919. Some evidence suggests that Sir Alan Cobham also used the original runway during his Municipal Aerodrome Campaign tour in 1929.

Later on in WWII, it was used by both the Royal Flying Corps and Royal Air Force. Now, it is home to the Hull Aero Club, which was founded in 1930 but began operating the airfield privately in 1991.
