Every once in a while I see a photo here where the background is as interesting as the subject and this is one of those rare photos.

I have never see a ground photo of those 2 wooden buildings before with the long grass fronting them. I guess they were war time buildings but who used them when this photo was taken?

The site of the wooden buildings is now the location of Monarch's hangar but the hangar to the right of the wooden huts still stands.

I also saw a photo last week that I was hoping would make its way here of a Jet Provost on the old compass bay outside Percival's. I had never seen that compass bay before so it was another fascinating photo of Luton's history.
