Cambridgeshire and the surrounding areas were home to many RAF bases during the Second World War. Many have since reverted to rural use. One example is RAF Wratting Common, which was near Newmarket in Suffolk. The base was built late in the war in 1942 and around 1,500 personnel were stationed there. The airfield was initially named RAF West Wickham, but changed to its new name in August 1943. It is said that this was to avoid similarities with another station in High Wycombe (Bomber Command HQ).
