Buildings 1-5 (Airmen's barrack blocks), West Camp, Main Road, A233 (east side), Biggin Hill - Bromley
Group of five airmen's barracks blocks, dating from 1930. The buildings have been vacant since the RAF withdrew from Biggin Hill, the internationally renowned historic fighter base, in 1993. Roof repairs have been carried out to one block but urgent repairs are required to the roofs and rainwater goods of the remaining blocks. The Local Authority is considering action to secure these works. Having met with the owner and other stakeholders, the Local Authority and Historic England are discussing ways in which they can assist in identifying new uses for the buildings.
