Summary edit
| Description |
English: Sea Field, Rolston, East Riding of Yorkshire, England. Abandoned block building on the North Sea cliff top near Home Farm and Rolston Hall. Judging by the layout of buildings on the map it's part of one of many camps set up by different organizations along this coastline over the years. There was some sort of Army camp at Rolston from 1921 onwards and a rifle range as far back as 1907, the most modern manifestation of which is still visible (although disused) less than one kilometre northwest of here. Just south of here the Cowden Air Weapon Range was established by the RAF in 1953 and was still being used in the 1990s. The Territorial Army, the YMCA, the Hull Young People's Christian and Literary Institute, Hull Boys' Club, Humberside County Council and Hull City Council have all operated camps on this stretch of coastline and Hungarian refugees were apparently housed in one of them before it closed in the 1960s. As to the purpose of the actual building in the picture, I really don't have a clue. |
