This rectangular concrete base is the remains of one of the huts initially used at the start of World War II by staff of the Anti-Aircraft (or Ack-Ack) battery The huts were used from 1945-8 by the German PoWs held at the site, known as Nigg Hostel. Memories of the former occupants of these huts revealed that they were basic: they had a central fire which did not really heat the hut and basic beds. During the period of the Ack- Ack battery's use of the huts, women received 2 blankets whilst male occupants only received one.
