Are there any plans to extend the study back to WWI? We have one which
may be the same as the Wapley Yate site. It would also be interesting to
see how Fengoch in north Wales, pressed into use after Easter 1916, was
classified.
Glad to see Island Farm Bridgend, the only site of a successful German
escape (in the UK), made it to the list

Some of you may be aware that English Heritage has recently been
conducting a national assessment of PoW camps (primarily in England,
though with reference to those elsewhere in the UK). This work is now
complete and the report available on the Web, via English Heritage's
Recent Military Heritage web pages. A slightly fuller version (more
data; the text is the same) can be found in a bound copy of the report,
available at the NMR library, Swindon.
The link to this report is:

Any questions or further information on any of these sites and Roger or
I would be happy to help.
With best wishes,
John
