Welcome to Downham Market Airfield Cairn Memorial Website

The Downham Market Airfield Cairn memorial is a tribute to the brave servicemen and women who served at RAF Downham Market, Norfolk, England, a pivotal Royal Air Force Bomber Station from July 1942 to September 1945. This memorial aims to inspire pride and a sense of belonging in the community, reminding everyone of their shared history and sacrifice. The memorial, created by Chris Coverdale, seeks to inspire pride and strengthen community bonds. Your support helps keep this history alive and makes you an essential part of honouring our veterans. If you're able to donate, it would be much appreciated. You can do this through the GoFundMe page.

On 7 July 2026, the Downham Market Airfield Cairn memorial was blessed in a ceremony by R.A.F. Marham, showcasing the community's pride and collective effort in remembrance and fostering a sense of unity.

I appreciate your understanding. With limited funding, which is crucial for maintaining the website, we're having trouble updating content and managing costs with Wedador. To help, you can consider making a donation or sharing our fundraising efforts.  Without the right funding, I will set up a Facebook site. It may be weaker in content, but it will serve as a platform until the donations situation improves.
