It looks like there's nothing left about the camp... the video author talks about terrible conditions pf the prisoners, but that's not true: my grandfather always remembered that he never felt hungry and he normally worked as a farmer which actually was his jobin italy. He was much helthier there than his brothers in italy during the war.

I'm looking for the house in the atached picture, where my grandpa used to work

The Italian POW camp in Billingshurst was in Marringdean Road. It backed onto a field owned by my wife's family.
The camp no longer exists, it was built upon and is now Kingswood Close.
Hope this helps.
