Thorpe Abbotts

Thorpe Abbotts is a small village in Norfolk, England, known for its former Royal Air Force station used during World War II. The station was important for the Allied bombing campaigns and hosted the famous 100th Bomb Group, also called the “Bloody Hundredth.” After the war, the airfield was decommissioned and the runways mostly removed, but some buildings remain as historical sites or private properties. Today, it’s a quiet village with historical significance, especially for those interested in military history and World War II aviation.
