This airport does not show up on sectional charts. It was built in the early years of World War II (ca. 1940) as one of many training bases for RCAF and RAF pilots. It is now abandoned and apparently serves as part of a family farm

Very sad. My father undetook his RAF WW2 training flying Harvards at that airfield in WW2 as part of No.31 EFTS.
