Notes
Built by Nobby Norris back in the venison recovery days & subsequently extended at some point. Nobby was the resident meat hunter between 1961 to 1973/74. By 2014, the hut was in poor condition & it has unfortunately been washed away in a major flood. Access permission was required from the run holder to access the hut. It had 4 mattresses. Edit Hut
