Abstract: |
In December 2009 Archaeological Solutions Ltd. undertook a programme of historic building recording on the Stand by Set House at the Old Parade Ground, North Weald Airfield, North Weald, Essex (TL 49265 03884). The work was carried out as part of a planning condition attached to the approval to construct 126 apartments and houses and associated infrastructure. The building was constructed during the inter-war period, as a back-up power station in case the main power supply to the airfield was destroyed or incapacitated. At a later date, during the Cold War period, the building was heavily remodelled, being given several additional features. Several years of redundancy and neglect have left the structure in poor condition. Almost none of the original plant survives, apart from a few ephemeral fixtures and fittings. |
