INFORMATION:

15: just behind the quarry is a school playing field and the brick class room looks as though it could have been part of the battery and on the opposite side of the road are two Nissan huts. Several British and Allied soldiers served in the Maiden Newton area. In 1939 the Lincolnshire Regiment arrived and by 1944 there were several American units getting ready for D-day.
