One of a series of images found in an envelope with the caption "Camp photos. Spring 1944. Small". Despite this inscription, these photographs probably record the visit to the Camp, and Igbosere, of Oliver Stanley, Secretary of State for the Colonies, on September 12, 1943 (Times 1943-09-17, page 3)
