About

Scampton ward encompasses the village of Scampton and its surrounding rural land in Lincolnshire. The area is dominated by RAF Scampton, a historic airbase that has been central to its identity for decades. Large sections of the ward are taken up by the airfield's runways and associated military infrastructure. The landscape is primarily flat, agricultural farmland, with fields divided by hedgerows.

The village itself is a small, linear settlement located directly adjacent to the airbase perimeter. Its community is closely tied to the station's operations, past and present. The base is famously associated with the Royal Air Force's Red Arrows aerobatic team and was the origin of the Dambusters raid during the Second World War. The future of the site often influences local discussions.
