Buddon Camp has been considerably enlarged and modernised in the recent past. A Camp and Training Area HQ has been built in a separate, fenced, compound in the NE corner of the site; a new complex, capable of housing a battalion-sized unit, occupies the majority of the area. At the time of the RCAHMS photography, on 26 June 2003, temporary Portakabin accommodation units were being removed.
On the northern side of the camp is a wire-fenced vehicle refuelling area, which can be accessed separately from the camp complex. On the N side of the road is a substantial assault course, also of recent construction.
A number of older buildings remain on the western side of the camp, outside the perimeter fence. A small isolated building between the camp and the ranges is a probable NBC respirator testing chamber.
