## Description

Coal Aston at Dronfield in Derbyshire, just south of Sheffield, is a small airfield with a long history that today serves light aviation only. There is no scheduled service, no cargo handling, no terminal and no customs post, so it has no role in the movement of goods. Air freight for South Yorkshire and Derbyshire is handled at East Midlands (EMA), the UK's leading dedicated freight airport, and at Manchester (MAN) for long-haul belly capacity.
