A lot of the accommodation on the site was provided by the simple 'Nissen' hut. Usually sleeping up to 20 men, it was invented by Colonel Peter Nissen in 1916 as a shelter structure during the first world war, a design that endured for many years, well into the 1960's. The huts shown here are in the Northern area of the camp for the enlisted men.
