Constructed in 1942,
Wolverley Camp
has had a varied history. Its occupation began in 1943 when the US Army Medical Corps opened its award winning 52nd general hospital. After the hostilities in Europe had ceased the US Medical Corps returned to the states and units of the British Army moved in along with German POWs.
The Royal Army Pay Corps has also occupied the camp and at one point there were plans to turn the camp into a prison.
Wolverley Camp
is now a campsite which is used as a leisure facility during the summer for camping and caravanning, it is also used as an area to fly model aircraft in the summer months.
