Full Description
This was one of the Womens Auxiliary Air Force (WAAF) accommodation camps. The camp is visible on aerial photographs taken in 1946, on which at least fourteen huts are evident, these mainly Nissen huts with one larger, and two possible air raid shelters.
An RCAHMS site visit in 2008 recorded the remains of at least four huts and several concrete hut bases, now within woodland.
