Does anyone know what these two areas of barracks-like buildings situated either side of Nazareth House are? In the photographs from 1928, both areas have been cleared, and the land returned to what looks like agricultural use. I can only guess that the buildings were temporary structures which had a use related to the Great War; perhaps for the rehabilitation of injured soldiers, but I would be pleased if someone could give me a definitive answer as to their purpose.
