The Croydon Airport Society

The Croydon Airport Society was founded in 1978 and based at the old airport buildings in Purley Way, Croydon. Much of the airport’s original infrastructure has survived such as the terminal building with its booking hall and control tower, however over the years the hangars have all been demolished.
If you are interested in visiting Croydon Airport the society runs a visitor’s museum, maintaining an extensive archive and preserves what remains of the airport along with related artefacts.
Opening times:
Croydon Airport Visitor Centre:  Open to the general public on the first Sunday of every month from 11am – 4pm (last entry 3.30pm)
