Coal Aston Airfield , also known as Apperknowle Airstrip, is a general aviation airfield located in the village Apperknowle, Derbyshire, 5.8 mi south of Sheffield.
The unlicensed airfield is just south of a ridge of high ground to the north-east of Dronfield, close to the villages of Summerley, Apperknowle and Coal Aston. There has been a Coal Aston airfield since the World War I, though not here; RAF Coal Aston was on what is now the Jordanthorpe estate in south-east Sheffield, 1.7 miles to the north-west. By the late 1920s this had become a civil field which promised, until World War II, to become Sheffield's airport.
