Thanks chaps for the replies i do not know the exact location or site plan and it does warrant further investigation.

This airfield was used in the late forties/early fifties by the East Riding Flying School using Auster Autocrats G-AJIG and G-AJIN and i believe a Tiger Moth. The airfield was used by Tiger Moths ,Proctors and Gemini’s also. Does anybody know where the airfield was and have any photo’s or memories to share before it is lost in the ether ?

hi there T21
ive traced a miles gemini that was based at speeton in 1953 G-AMBH it ended up in the belgian congo circa 1958,there appears to be no photographs of the flying school at speeton and indeed it may have been known as bridlington airfield at some point that could cause some confusion.:cool: 😎

In Bones aviation pages www.homepages.mcb/bones he mentions Bridlington Speeton and gives co ordinates N 54 09 W00 14 which puts it close to the village,but I am always wary about airfield map refs.
So at least he confirms it was post war civil,but there was another grass field close by as well.

Would this be the airfield in question?
