Archaeology Notes

NO60NW 49.08 61396 09324

A brick and concrete building on the NW side of Crail Airfield (NO60NW 49.00), now in ruins.

J Guy 1994; NMRS MS 810/3

An accommodation building for Crail Airfield.

Information from Mr I Brown to RCAHMS, 19 October 1998

This unroofed accommodation building stands in a small wood about 418m SE of Wormiston House (NO60NW 24) and NW of the large extant accommodation camp near Kirklands Farm.

The unroofed building measures about 34m x 6m overall, has two small annexes at each end. The interior has one large room with two smaller ones at the NE end. A small stove with and boiler are extant in the small compartment.

The purpose of this building remains unknown, the fact that it is completely separate from others in the Crail Airfield complex suggests a use other than accommodation.
