Second World War dispersed accommodation camp 3, one of 5 camps established in late 1940/41 for the RAF airfield to the north at Thong Lane. The woodland location was to safeguard personnel from the greater risk of air bombardment if quartered at the airfield itself. After brief use by the Royal Navy in 1945, the site was used as accommodation for the homeless. After c. 1954, the huts were removed and the site returned to nature.
