Summary

Description
English: Brick farm sheds - wartime relics. The sheds are in a meadow which separates Wymondham College > 1610973 from College Farm > 1610875 further to the south. In September 1943 a military hospital, comprised mainly of Nissen huts and other temporary buildings, was opened here. The patients, injured airmen returning from bombing raids over occupied Europe, were brought by ambulance train to Spooner Row station > https://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/1412130 and by fleets of ambulances to the hospital from there. The hospital closed in 1945 but the site remained the property of the War Ministry and became a transit camp for troops of the Royal Norfolk Regiment embarking overseas.
