Airport Closure Information

Last updated: Jul 25, 2025
Closure Date

Circa mid-to-late 2000s. The airfield was last depicted on the Toronto VFR Terminal Area Chart in 2003. By 2011, satellite imagery shows the land had been converted for agricultural use, indicating a closure sometime in that intervening period.

Reason for Closure

Cessation of private operations. Belwood North Field was a privately owned aerodrome. Its closure was not due to a specific incident or military conversion but rather a likely decision by the owner to cease operations. This is common for small, private airstrips due to factors like maintenance costs, sale of the property, or the owner's retirement. The land was subsequently reclaimed for farming.

Current Status

The site has been fully converted back into private agricultural land. The former turf runway has been plowed over and is now part of a cultivated farm field. There is no remaining aviation infrastructure, such as hangars or markings, and the outline of the former airstrip is no longer visible.

Historical Significance

Belwood North Field was a small, private general aviation airfield. Its significance was primarily local, serving private pilots for recreational flying. It featured a single turf runway, listed in the Canadian Flight Supplement (CFS) as being 2,400 feet long and oriented 15/33. It never handled commercial or military traffic and was solely for light, private aircraft.

Reopening Prospects

None. The land is privately owned and actively used for agriculture. There are no known plans, proposals, or discussions to re-establish an airport at this location. Reopening would require the landowner to cease farming operations and make a significant investment to rebuild and recertify the airfield, which is highly unlikely.
