For anti-aircraft battery site see NG88NW 3

Second World War military camp associated with anti-aircraft battery (NG88NW 3) and other military sites is visible on vertical air photographs, (RAF 540/888, 5140-42, flown 1952) as the footings and bases of several huts at the above location. The modern OS map (OS 1:10000 map, 1990) has annotated the map, 'Camp site (disused)' at NG 8220 8820 although there is no evidence of a site at this location on the vertical air photographs.
