The house, currently named 'Humblebee', was an observation post in WWII, which presumably accounts for the strange looking extension on the north (near) side with a high level circular window. Nearer, in the field, is an underground nuclear observation bunker from the cold war era. Its access shaft is reportedly now blocked with rubble.
