About RAF Bramcote / HMS Gamecock
Royal Air Force Bramcote, or more simply RAF Bramcote, is a former Royal Air Force station located 3.5 miles (5.6 km) south-east of Nuneaton, Warwickshire, England used during the Second World War. It was later transferred to the Admiralty and was known as Royal Naval Air Station Bramcote, (RNAS Bramcote), and when commissioned became HMS Gamecock.
