My misson is to get to Warsaw, Poland, as a tribute to those Polish families exiled to UK.
Morpeth Common Camp was built to accommodate British troops at the start of World War 2 replacing an older military camp built on the same site during World War 1. The replacement camp comprised some 50, mainly pitched-roof, army huts occupying one square mile of land on Morpeth Common - a three square mile area of protected open space on the south west edge of Morpeth about three miles from the town centre. Between 1947 and 1962 the camp, one of around 50 similar camps throughout the UK, became home to exiled Polish families after the end of World War 2. It was also known as the 'Crash' Camp, an acronym for the County Regiment of the Argyll and Sutherland Highlanders who were stationed there in 1943.
