Tain Airfield, Control Tower

NH88SW 14.05 83018 81699

Tain airfield control tower survives as a two storey brick and concrete structure on the runway side of a collection of airfield buildings to the N of Balnagall farm. There is a further small additional storey accessed by a narrow concrete staircase. Although in a semi-derelict state with the upper front floor area removed, it still retains many of the internal divisions. The ground floor rooms have been considerably reduced in internal height by the deposition of many years of cattle waste. Two painted door signs survive on the upper floor, both are above a door and small window respectively and state 'Enquiries'.

Immediately to the W is a standard brick built blast shelter.
