Gatwick Aerodrome to Airport

Hunts Green Farm was one of Tinsley Green’s old farms. In the 1920s, some of its land was converted into an airfield as flying became more popular and more landing grounds were sought. In 1933 it was sold to A. M. (Morris) Jackaman, who planned to convert it into a relief aerodrome for Croydon Airport and start regular flights to Paris using de Havilland DH.84 Dragon aircraft.
