It would appear that these huts were lived in and had a kitchen cum bathroom where a cover was hinged to the wall and folded down to make the bath into a table.

Waterside Echo Posted December 2, 2008 Share Posted December 2, 2008 ....wernt they called "nissan" huts ? The only huts I can remember were the ones at the old Ack-Ack Station [Gun pits] Shirecliffe, over looking Neepsend. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi From what I understand there were around 100 of these dwellings, all lived in, they could have been nissan huts, but were at Neepsend somewhere. I have sent my mum off with a list of questions for when she meets this lady again, hopefully this will clarify things. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This could be where the infamous Sheffield legend of the wartime Rubber-duck cheesegrater came from. OR maybe I just made that one up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Simon Greenwood Posted April 1, 2010 Share Posted April 1, 2010 Were they off Parkgate Road? I have a very vague memory of prefabs up there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
