Buildings at Turn Moss Playing Fields, Stretford

Image: © Phil Champion Taken: 24 Apr 2011

Approximately on the site of Turn Moss Cottages (shown on pre-war maps.) I assume this was an army camp in WWII. The buildings are now used as changing rooms for the surrounding playing fields. The building in the centre of the view was an air raid shelter, now housing an electrical sub-station.
