All that now remains of this hut, which was largely of timber construction and probably measured no more than about 8m in length, is the concrete floor of a small toilet block that was attached to the centre of its front (south) side. This floor, which is supported on a low brick plinth and is cracked and partly displaced, measures 2.55m from N to S by 2.3m transversely and it originally supported brick walls, including an internal partition of a toilet cubicle in its SE corner. Nothing is now visible of the timber element of the building, which is visible on a vertical aerial photograph taken in February 1941 (RAF 614.C). It is also depicted on site-plans contained within the Fort Record Book (National Archives: WO 192/113), and variously labelled ‘ATS Quarters’, or simply ‘ATS’.
