For a detailed account on the wartime history of RAF Portreath check out: • https://www.philhadleypublications.co... • When the decision was made to ease the pressure on Group 10 Fighter Command Sector Headquarters station at RAF St Eval in the summer of 1940, land at Nancekuke near Portreath was chosen to be the site of its replacement. This video tells the story of RAF Portreath during World War Two and looks at what remains of the base from that time. The video visits the SAA stores, a domestic site, the WAAF camp and the Sector Operations Room and makes reference to a range of other locations. • • Can you add any detail to the interpretation of the sites visited? Do you have any wartime photographs of RAF Portreath or its personnel? Did any of your relatives serve there? If so please leave a comment. • • The music featured is Coming in on a wing and a prayer by Helen Clare and the Billy Thorburn Orchestra, The clouds will soon roll by by Elsie Carlisle with the Ambrose Orchestra, A pair of silver wings by Anne Shelton, Say a prayer for the boys over there by Deanna Durbin and Coming home my darling by Dorothy Squires. • • Thanks for looking. Please check out my other videos on World War Two sites in Cornwall, especially the Decoy Site for RAF Portreath and Invasion at Portreath. I have also posted some wartime footage taken at Portreath - • RAF Portreath During World War Two • For two great adventures set in Cornwall during the war check out my novels No Small Stir and its sequel A Place And A Name which has a short scene set in Portreath in the spring of 1941: • https://www.philhadleypublications.com/
