| Summary : A group of five barrack blocks for airmen at the former RAF Biggin Hill site, built in 1930. The blocks are situated to the north end of the former "West Camp" area east of the A233 (Main Road). They were built to a design evolved after 1923. The exteriors have been little altered since World War Two.
