The camp was built in 1950 to house R.A.F personnel from the nearby radar station

The camp had its own fire station and police station

We took over the fire station in 2005 and have worked hard and spent a lot of money to refurb the station back to its former glory

On doing some research we have found some pics shown below

This is an aerial shot of the camp

This is the site plan with all buildings listed number 4 being the fire station
