Marble Head Farm Airport

The airport was a private-use airstrip. While the exact reason is not publicly documented, the closure is consistent with common reasons for small, private airfields, such as the sale of the property, the owner ceasing aviation activities, or the land being repurposed. The gradual conversion of the runway back into farmland, as seen in satellite imagery, suggests a simple cessation of use rather than a closure due to an accident or regulatory action.

The site of the former airport has been completely reclaimed for agricultural use. Satellite imagery of the coordinates shows the land where the north/south turf runway once existed is now an active farm field, with no visible traces of the runway, taxiways, or any aviation-related structures like hangars. The land has been fully integrated back into the surrounding farmland.

Marble Head Farm Airport was a small, private general aviation facility with no major historical significance. Its primary function was to serve the owners and operators of Marble Head Farm. The airport was established sometime between 1981 and 1987. FAA data from 2000 described it as having a single turf runway (18/36) measuring 2,640 feet by 100 feet. It handled private, light aircraft operations, typical of the numerous farm strips found throughout rural America during that period.

There are no known plans or prospects for reopening Marble Head Farm Airport. The land has been fully converted back to agriculture, and the airport has been officially closed and unmaintained for nearly two decades. Re-establishing an airport on the site would be a new development project requiring significant investment and regulatory approval, making it extremely unlikely.
