Ex-RNAD Box van arrives at Woody Bay

Published: 12th June, 2023

AN ex-RNAD box van has been relocated from a private site near Bratton Fleming to Woody Bay.
It's been kept dry and safe for several decades and it has a planned future at Woody Bay now after restoration.

It's similar to all our ex RNAD box vans but still with the sliding 'giraffe style' roof doors which allowed bombs etc to be loaded in from above when they needed to be transported from the ammunition stores to the servicing sheds.
