Camp 21 Cultybraggan

Camp 21 Cultybraggan
The prisoner of war camp at Cultybraggan was completed in late 1941 and originally used to house Italian prisoners. It was later used as a transit camp for Germans and as a high security establishment for holding ardent nazis. Later it became a MOD training centre until closure in 2004. It is now owned by the local community through the Comrie Development Trust. The camp still contains a large number of nissen huts and these make a spectacular sight.

These are the only corrugated iron buildings I thought the UK had until I saw your photos. In Australia there several WWII bases with these that were used to house refugees when they first arrived in the post war period.
