RAF Barnham is a Royal Air Force station situated in the English county of Suffolk 2 miles south of the Norfolk town of Thetford. It is located to the north of the village of Barnham on Thetford Heaths. The camp is a satellite station of RAF Honington.
During the 1950s and 60s a part of RAF Barnham was set aside as high-security storage facility for nuclear weapons. This area of the site is now a scheduled monument. Earlier than that, Barnham had been used as a chemical weapons store and filling station from 22 August 1939. In the early 1960s, the nuclear weapons storage facility was put up for sale, and now forms the privately-owned Gorse Industrial Estate. The chemical weapon store and former chemical weapon filling station are situated down the dead-end Station Road.
