The Ministry of Defence has confirmed plans to start marketing RAF Scampton for sale by the end of December 2022.
In a letter to Gainsborough MP Sir Edward Leigh, published by the Save Scampton group, Minister of State for Defence Procurement Jeremy Quin said his office had been working with West Lindsey District Council to deliver a future for the site that “provides the greatest benefit for the local community”.
He also confirmed that an “ambitious plan that utilises the whole site is currently under consideration”.
