Former barrack blocks, RAF Bircham Newton
These buildings have been occupied by the National Construction College since the 1960s, but they were built in the 1920s as accommodation blocks for RAF Bircham Newton.
I'd been looking for traces of RAF Docking - without a specific grid reference - and when I happened upon the Bircham Newton site I thought perhaps I'd succeeded. The reason for my search was that my father had been stationed at Docking for a couple of months in 1943, while with 304 Squadron, Coastal Command.
I now know that RAF Docking was a satellite of Bircham Newton, and that just a few derelict buildings remain: http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/4160259 http://www.geograph.org.uk/photo/4159757
