It's a Ministry of Works Handcraft Hut made by the Universal Asbestos Company Ltd from 1942 onwards.
I'm looking at page 133 of Paul's new book which will hopefully be appearing in the non-too-distant future !!

How odd, despite the cows giving them scale they still look half the size they should be.

Looks like a very desirable housing estate, I bagsy one first!

ACADEMIA had a very good guide to military buildings a few months ago. I can't see the link at the moment but should be easy to find on their wenbsite.

Re John's Davidstow photos.
Do I see cows in close proximity to asbestos huts?
Do cows provide food and drink?
Do cows lick things?
Let's not go there!
