Full Description
Manston Airport emergency crash fire station was built by the USAF in 1957 and was in use until the airport’s closure in 2014. Much of the building is original construction although a viewing tower was subsequently added and the garage frontage was extended by 2.0m in 2000 to accommodate larger pump engines. (1)
