There were of course two airfields at Arundel in the last war.

RAF Ford and HMS Peregrine, a Royal Naval Air Station, sadly both subsumed by Ford open prison.

Ford prison doesn't really cover much of either, there are 2 industrial estates, a market on part of the runway, a rifle range and several other businesses. There are lots of graves stones in Clymping church for those who lost their lives there.

My first "proper" job when I left school was at Ford Airfield. I worked for Francis Concrete (part of Tarmac and situated alongside their Topblock factory) as a trainee surveyor/estimator
 I know it's not considered "kind" to say no these days, but no. Just no, ok? And if it's not ok, still no.

Was that when Bob Francis still owned it? All the recycling takes place around there now for the whole of West Sussex, but I think Top Block are still there.

Tarmac had already taken over - 1986/87 was when I joined and I think Tarmac bought them a year or two earlier

Aaaaah yes the 80's when Tarmac were buying up everything and were huge in contracting.
A Tarmac QS once told me what TARMAC stood for and there weren't any pleasantries in that Shocked
