Marsh Field

The primary reason for closure was land redevelopment for industrial use. The privately-owned land was sold and developed into a large manufacturing and distribution facility. This is a common fate for small, privately-owned airfields located on land that becomes more valuable for commercial or industrial purposes.

The site of the former Marsh Field is now occupied by a large industrial facility. Specifically, it is the location of the American Woodmark Corporation's cabinet manufacturing plant and distribution center, located at 1000 Woodmark Way. The main building, access roads, and parking lots completely cover the southern and central portions of the former runway. All airport-specific infrastructure has been removed, and the land has been permanently repurposed.

Marsh Field, also known as Frostburg Airport, was a small, privately-owned general aviation airport that likely opened in the late 1940s or early 1950s. It was owned and operated by George Marsh. The airfield featured a single unpaved turf runway, approximately 2,200 feet long and designated as Runway 18/36. It served the local aviation community, providing a base for private pilots and their light aircraft. It represented a typical post-WWII era private airfield, supporting recreational flying and personal air travel for the Frostburg area before its operations were consolidated to larger regional airports like the Greater Cumberland Regional Airport (KCBE).

There are zero plans or prospects for reopening Marsh Field. The construction of a major, active industrial facility directly on the former runway and airport grounds makes any return to aviation use impossible. The land has been irreversibly redeveloped.
