I think the original use for that building was actually a Standby Set House.

An almost identical building exists at RAF Docking, and that is what it was.

However, it may well have been utilised as a fire house...

Well done. Great videos. Very interesting.

I live on the site of the 2nd WW prison of war camp at Pudding Norton, Hempton, Fakenham. Not much left of it now, just some concrete foundations. Bunkers have been filled as far as i know.
