 With the end of military control the former technical site of Mendlesham to the southwest of the airfield was developed into an industrial estate.Large, expansive buildings were constructed over the area, around the T2 hangar that still exists.The balance of the airfield was returned to agricultural use; the runways, hardstands and perimeter track being largely removed for aggregate and today are fields, although parts of the perimeter track and the 02/20 runway remain as single-track farm access roads.
