Second World War firing ranges are visible on aerial photographs of 1940 and 1946 as structures and earthworks within the perimeter of a site still used for military training today. This area is known as Lydd Ranges. The aerial photographs of 1940 show a rifle range orientated north-east to south-west, with a series of parallel targets or butts. By the time of the aerial photograph of 1946, the earlier rifle range appears to have gone out of use, as an Armoured Fighting Vehicle (AFV) range had been laid out over the top of it. Some parts of the AFV range are still in use today. The earthworks and some of the structures of the two earlier phases of use of this site are still extant on the latest available aerial photographs of 2007. These features have been mapped from aerial photographs as part of the South East RCZAS NMP project.
