A
large number of the original Technical Site buildings remain on the
site, although the main T2 hangar has gone, to be replaced by the two
peaked roof farm buildings erected on the old hangar base. The MT Shed
and Parachute Store remain, along with several Romney huts, concrete
vehicle ramps and the Dingy Store.
