Cross and Cockade International (Volume 32, Number 1, Spring 2001) carried a review of the book "Shropshire Airfields". The reviewer states:
RAF Tern Hill was established in 1916 as a training station equipped with Avro 504s and later Sopwith Camels, but suffered a calamitous fire in 1919, when it was in use for working up the new Handley Page 0/400s, which destroyed two of the main hangars as well as four 0/400s and some 504s. The airfield was sold in 1920 to a race horse trainer.
