Thanks Colski, but neither fits the anticipated location; I need that notebook and I am still looking for it!. Meanwhile, enjoy Paul's image for it is probably the last man standing.
They were used for barrack huts, store buildings, churches and factory units - much the same as any hut design. This particular beast was I belive located on the War Office / MoD estate but had been used for grass drying purposes by a farmer who had the grass cutting contract.
You can tell a builder from an archaeologist by the size of his trowel. Mine is a small one!
Please, if anyone guesses or knows the location of this structure would they not post its location anywhere on the forum as if there is too much interest in it, the building will be removed.

Thanks Paul, I wasn't suggesting that the survivor be relocated, just thinking through whether such a structure could be dismantled at all. It would certainly be necessary to strip and scrap the covering and re-cover the old framework with new fabric and concrete. The covering being unique would then be new and destroy the originality. I guess that's why so few (maybe one!) survive.
Just watched that BoB programme on Chan 5 and on an aerial view of Eastchurch there appeared to be a Ctesiphon. Did anyone else notice this?
Yes I did, Dave. However I was so incensed with the appalling number of errors in this documentary I forgot about it. More to follow when I've finished the list .

Plan A is always more effective when the problem you are working on understands that Plan B will involve the use of dynamite
