Archaeology Notes

NT08NE 114.02 centred 05704 85863

The accommodation camp for crew and support staff is situated about 100m E of the four gun-emplacements. Some structures survive in the area, inlcuding the guard room, recreation hut, a store and the remains of a vehicle shed plus the bases of several huts. The roadways between the hut bases can still be discerned.

Part of the accommodation camp is viisble on RAF vertical air photographs (58[A] 386, Pt.1, 5457-5458, flown 21 May 1948).
