Dave — the 'shelter' existed all right, and I met the lady who, as a girl, used to change for bathing in it in the 1930s. The bathing hut belonged to her grandparents and was a home made affair, and AR was not far off the mark, as the hut did not survive WWII. Further details in 'Mixed Moss' 2011 and Master 'Storyteller'.
