PREFACE<br />
This report has been commissioned by WSP Environmental Ltd. to provide baseline information for<br />
the redevelopment of the former <strong>RAF</strong> <strong>Oakington</strong> site. It has taken as its main study area the land<br />
within the 1999 boundary of <strong>Oakington</strong> Barracks, although reference has also been made to outlying<br />
sites and structures outside the perimeter that relate to the history of the station; this includes<br />
structures south of the Longstanton Road. It provides information on the majority of buildings and<br />
structures erected on this site between 1939 and 1999 that were extant in 2004.<br />
<strong>The</strong> fieldwork was carried out by Paul Francis and Richard Flagg, the research and report writing<br />
was compiled by Paul Francis. Alex Brown completed the proof reading.<br />
