Summary
Possible Second World War huts and concreate platforms are seen as structures and foundations on aerial photographs. The huts and their platforms are seen as structures and foundations in the 1950s and are removed by the 1970s. These features most likely relate to two further groups of Second World War huts to the south (NHER 62498 and 62499) and are most likely part of the Second World War military activity at Didlington Hall (NHER 63067).
