This is a private site - best viewed from the coastal path. Used as a military base during the Second World War, Weybourne Camp was converted into the Muckleburgh Collection, a private museum of militaria, in the early 1970's. Over the next few years, many of the Nissan huts were demolished and the area to the north of the main buildings was allowed to develop into scrubland and overgrown hedges. During this period Stonechat, Black Redstart, Grasshopper Warbler and Red-backed Shrikes all nested in the area. In 1987 a conservation management plan was drawn up resulting in the excavation of a small freshwater pool and extensive planting of mainly willow, oak, sycamore and elderberry. Unfortunately in recent years the area has been generally "tidied up", almost all of the hedges have been uprooted and much of the area has been converted to arable farmland. Despite this, almost 290 species of birds have been recorded on or from the camp and both spring and autumn still never fail to produce some outstanding rarities. Over 23,000 birds have been ringed on the camp since ringing first started in 1972!
