Description

1997. RCHME field survey. The 1918 RAF survey specifically mentions eight men's huts, and these tally with eight structures (of constant width but various lengths) shown to the north of the officers' mess (EHER 81757) on the 3rd edition Ordnance Survey map. They were probably of timber construction. <1> <2>
