This collection comprises images and a report from a photographic and metric survey of Stanmore Lodge carried out by York Archaeology in March 2023.

The historic building recording was undertaken to provide a record of the buildings and surface remains of former RAF structures associated with Sandtoft Airfield (WW2), around Stanmore Lodge, in advance of the proposed demolition of the buildings on site for residential redevelopment. Buildings 1-4 are of late 20th-century date, erected subsequent to the RAF occupation on site, and include a bungalow, stabling and a steel-framed shed. Buildings 6-9 are concrete raft foundations of former RAF airfield buildings, with building 7 used as the base for a later timber shed. Building 6 is a large H-plan foundation for a possible crew block, housing drying rooms and lockers, whereas the remaining foundations may have been for maintenance blocks, as indicated by the 1944-45 Air Ministry plan. Building 5 is the only standing structure associated with the former RAF technical complex, and may have housed a furnace for drying rooms in the H-plan crew block. Part of the heating system appears to have been later used to dry saddles associated with subsequent stabling.
