The airfield was built as a satellite of RAAF Station Schofields. The airfield ran North to South next to what is Trafalgar Avenue, Woy Woy and was constructed from compacted red gravel used as the runway surface. The red gravel can still be seen along the edge of the road surface. The hangars and service area were located in what is now Alma Avenue, Woy Woy. The hangars are still in existence and are utilised as warehouses or industrial buildings. The airfield was last used in 1946, the land subsequently developed for residential occupation. An anti-aircraft battery protected the airfield which was located in Blackwall Mountain Reserve. See also
