These structures were part of a dispersed communal site belonging to nearby RAF Greencastle. The airfield completed in 1942 as a pilot training base was transferred to the Americans in 1943 when it became known as USAAF 237. The airfield was shut in 1945. Nicholsons Road is a minor road connecting the coast with the major Greencastle Road.
