Does anyone knows the purpose of those caverns in wing root seen on Mk.II
(sometimes seems to be covered with plexiglas)?

It would appear to be an inspection panel of some kind, I'm unsure if it's meant for the landing gear or the wing locking mechanism.

The only place I could find a reference from, is this video review of the Valiant Wings Fairey Barracuda Airframe Album by Richard A. Franks.
