Full Description
Former site of hop pickers huts south west of Lower Barn, Otford. The hoppers huts first appear on the second edition Ordnance Survey map (1897 - 1900) as two rows, one in front of the other, forming a block against the southern field boundary. The structures are visible on the 1940s aerial photographs but are not shown on later aerial photos. The structures are demolished sometime after 1947.
