Published 2023-02-01
This was one of around 30 camp schools built by the National Camps Corporation in rural locations around the country. The camps were designed to provide holiday accommodation for children living in the city who would not have the opportunity to experience the rural countryside.
With the onset of the Second World War in 1939, Linton school along with other national camps, was utilised for evacuees as it was thought at the time that children from industrialised towns and cities were vulnerable to enemy air raids. It was opened in July 1940 with most of the evacuees coming from Bradford.
The timber frames and floor joists of the buildings rested on brick and concrete piers.The sides were covered in timber cladding and they were overhung by cedar shingle roofs.
