EGC2 CARDINGTHON 1935

Cardington became one of the major British sites involved in the development of airships in 1915.
The airships site was nationalised in April 1919, becoming known as the Royal Airship Works.

On preparation for the R101 project the No 1 shed was extended between October 1924 and March 1926; its roof was raised by 35 feet and its length increased to 812 feet. The No. 2 shed (Southern shed) was originally located at RNAS Pulham, Norfolk. It was dismantled there and re-erected at Cardington in 1928.

After the crash of the R101, in October 1930, all work stopped in Britain on airships. Cardington then became a storage station.
