This site as it exists today consists of a planned woodland called Nursery Plantation , small reservoir, and a farm. Whilst there are public footpaths and easy access to the woodland, I was unable to explore it detail as I am disabled and cannot walk too far.
Over flying the site with the drone failed to show up any features typical with a former military site. Likewise, it is not known if the PoW were accommodate on what is now the farm site or in tents or huts in what is now the woodland.
1 Km further along Dairy Farm Road there is what appears to be a former Munitions Depot laid out in a pointed loop.
