Details Remains of three airship hangers and the adjacent remains of hardstandings, windbreaks and associated structures and deposits, situated within a wider World War I airship station (NK04SW0025). The concrete bases of three hangars are set out in a T-plan arrangement and are orientated to take advantage of the prevailing wind whilst providing shelter for the large airships that were launched, recovered, stored and maintained here. The main hangar base, the largest of the three, covers an area approximately 216 m long by 45 m wide. The smaller hangar bases each cover an area approximately 98 m long by 34 m wide. Windbreaks and associated equipment and structures such as ground anchors extend beyond the hangar bases.
