V-Force Dispersal/QRA Caravans/Buildings

As a new subscriber, sensitive to the likely views of those who endured occupying them, I am seeking information on the types of 'accommodation' (to use the term loosely) provided for those lucky enough to be sitting V-Force QRA in the various outposts so designated. I have been unable to obtain information from the usual research sources, which probably supports my suspicion that nobody is much interested in this element of Cold War history. I have the impression that many sites had 'caravans' but I am also aware that Lossie had some wooden sheds while Bedford boasted its own little village of temporary buildings, except for the heating station and power house which were brick. Do any of the 'caravans' survive? Does anyone have photographs etc.of either mobile or fixed installations.Thanks in advance for anything you recall.
