The second edition Ordnance Survey map (1987-1900) shows six rectangular buildings, running parallel to the western field boundary. There are also six small square, probable toilet huts associated.

The third edition Ordnance Survey map (1907-23) shows an addition of two large rectangular buildings to the south of the site and one to the west. There is also the addition of five more small square buildings.

These buildings have all been demolished before the 1990 aerial photographic survey.
