The location of the First World War accommodation camp lies within an area of Cramond Island that is largely choked with rank vegetation and of the buildings mentioned in previous reports only the brick-built latrine (NT 19670 78614) was identified on the date of visit. Other than one part which stands at least 1.8m in height and probably originally supported a water tank, the walls have been reduced to their lower courses.

Formerly included in this record, the remains of the Second World War accommodation camp are now covered by the record NT17NE 71.13.
