Silly question... If the Airport opened in 1934, what was all that land before then??

Cheers

I would guess it was common pasture and Carr land.

Thanks Sproty. Although I know what common pasture is/was I've just had to Google what Carr land is and was. Having found out, it does make quite a bit of sense. The definition I read suggested Carrs are wetlands dominated by shrubs which clearly haven't been there for quite some time. But clearances, like on some of the plentiful other Carrs around there could account for that. I've  learned something. Thanks!
