Woodhall Spa pre-Arnhem

PN: as a one-time resident of W Spa, I remember that most or all of the troops billeted there were said to be Polish, whisked away for Op Market Garden. Spaniel and I would run almost every evening in the Roughton and Ostler woods.
The foundations of the camp buildings were easily identified although the trees were well grown. In those days, the early 1970s, there was a large and well found Polish ex-servicemens club at the bottom of Canwick Hill.
