NO44SE 46.01 centred 4844 4115
Four mast bases, some buildings and a sunken receiver/transmitter block are set within a rectangular enclosure at the W end of the radar station. The four mast bases are at NO 48399 41196, NO 48475 41188, NO 48415 41121 and NO 48491 41113 and the block is at NO 48444 41155.
The area is visible on vertical air photographs taken in 1947 (CPE/Scot/UK 304, 3079-3081, flown 26 September 1947), which show that at that date the masts were still standing. The air photographs also show that there was a single mast at c.NO 4863 4125, which would appear from the mapping evidence (OS 1:2500 scale digital map), to have been completely removed.
