High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! The Rackheath Eco-town is a controversial proposal for nearly 6000 houses to be built in the Rackheath and Salhouse area, in Norfolk, within a mile of The Broads National Park. The proposals have caused much controversy and as a consequence, have been featured on many programmes, including BBC One's Politics Show, BBC One's Look East, ITV's Anglia Tonight and a BBC One Norwich North By-Election Special. The site was used for agricultural purposes until 1943 when an airfield, RAF Rackheath, was constructed and used by the United States Army Air Force Eighth Air Force. The airfield was closed at the end of war in 1945 and the land was returned to farming with most of the runways and taxiways being broken up for aggregate. Some buildings were retained and now form part of Rackheath Industrial Estate. In the late 1990s, a large residential development was planned for the Rackheath and Salhouse area, but after public consultation, this did not progress any further.
