This residential accommodation, by comparison with plans of the layouts of comparable bomber stations at Cranfield and Feltwell (reproduced in Dobinson 2000, 137), appears to have formed an integral part of the bomber station of RAF Lindholme the separate streets of semi detached and detached housing (named after RAF bomber aircraft) representing separate married quarters for 'airmen' and 'officers'. Non married airmen and support staff presumable occupied the dormitory blocks to the east, converted into prison accommodation in 1985. Before its construction the area of RAF Lindholme was surveyed drained farmland analogous to that described as HSY4403 and created from the former raised mire of Hatfield Moor as part of the 1825 award of the 1811 Hatfield Thorne, Fishlake, Stainforth and Sykehouse enclosure Act (Haywood 1825) No legibility of pre RAF landscape within this area.
