Description
This included photographic recording of the runways, and of the post-airfield structures including radar masts, now comprising concrete mast bases. In the southwestern part of the airfield was a structure constructed of soil-filled ammunition boxes, which had comprised of two rooms and windows, a corrugated iron roof and had largely collapsed on one side. A pillbox of Yarnold-Sangar type was recorded on its west side. At the south of the airfield was a small concrete installation of unknown function. A further circular brick structure, likely to be the base of a World War II pillbox of Norcon type and a small square building were also recorded at the south side. The runways and perimeter roads of the military airfield were constructed from concrete, generally in 4 m by 4 m panels, which in places had worn, exposing the internal structure.
