The Rugby Radio Station was opened in 1926, and by the 1950s it was the largest transmitting station in the world, occupying sixteen hundred acres on and around the former RAF Lilbourne. The radio masts and station were demolished between 2003 and 2007, and the land is now developed as Houlton village. The old radio station building is now Houlton School, there is a large lorry park on part of the airfield.
