Just under ten years after this photograph was taken, Wolverhampton was to have its own airport on this site, at Pendeford. Opening in June 1938, the site was visited by King George VI and Queen Elizabeth in April 1940, where they watched a display by a Boulton Paul Defiant over the airfield. Later that year, in September 1940, the airport was attacked by a German Luftwaffe Junkers Ju.88, though the bombs missed and exploded in the nearby Barnhurst Sewerage Works. In 1956 a feature film, 'The Man in the Sky', starring Jack Hawkins, was filmed here. The airport closed on 31st December 1970, and today is the site of the Pendeford housing estate and Pendeford Business Park.
