First a bit of history ripped from a site elsewhere on the internet:
“Brigstock Camp built 1925 and over the years was used for an Emigration Camp, an Army Camp, ATS and Land Army Camp, US Army Training School, and in 1960 Stewarts & Lloyds Steelworks purchased Brigstock Camp for £23,000 at an auction. One hundred people moved from Scotland to work at the Steelworks and used Brigstock Camp for their living quarters and paid between £2.00 to £4.00 a week in rent and were allowed to stay up to nine months to allow them to find suitable accommodation. Many did so in the new expanding Corby.”
There have been several reports before and mention of dodgy floors, after checking out a few of the huts it was obvious we would be snapping mainly the externals....
and a few Panoramic's for good measure:
