Description:The farmhouse is in front of the training areas for "E" and "F" Battalion Lines. In front of the huts are straw sacks suspended from frames for bayonet practice and nearby there would have been trenches dug by the troops. The original track in front of the farmhouse is below the new military roadway that was constructed to serve the Camp. "F" Battalion Line remains disappeared when gravel extraction commenced after the War.
