Some 900m ENE from the camps at the crossroads (NH88SW 14.06) are two further accomodation camps for Tain Airfield. Both hutted areas lie to the S of the public road and there is little surviving upstanding remains. A few hut bases and a transformer building are all that can be seen. The camp furthest E has been built on by new housing.
Known as Nos.2 and 4 dispersed sites they included quarters for officers WO's and Sergeants, wheras No.4 accommodation site was mainly living quarters for all ranks.
