I always remember when I was at Les Vauxbelets. In the fields behind the Vauxbelets School, (now Blanchelande where Froome keeps all his equipment), there were lots and lots of huts built there by the Germans to house the slave workers who were occupied in digging out the tunnels at the Underground Hospital. In fact there is still today one building left there, it is a bit covered up with brambles and so on, but anybody goes past it gives you some idea of what sort of buildings they were. Imagine that whole fields were covered with these buildings for the German workers.
