Recent aerial photography (Google Earth 2007), would suggest that a series of huts bases and emergency blast shelters survive of accommodation quarters site no.11. A number of open spaces are visible on the photographs and at least three of the blast shelters are depicted on the current OS digital maps.
A contemporary plan of the airfield (After the Battle, Airfield Plan no.19, Crown Copyright/RAF Museum), shows that this camp consisted of Officers and Sergeants quarters, barrack huts ablutions, latrines and other buildings.
