NMRS Manuscript contains information on this site which was operated by BUTEC (Brittish Underwater Testing and Evaluation Centre) on the date of visit. The slipway with its carriage is used to move equipment which can then be side slipped into the large steel portal framed shed situated on the SW side of the site. The shed is shown on the OS 1:2500 map (1973), but the existing shed may post- date this. The site has also been enlarged and developed in recent years.
See NMRS MS/744/210/24 for detailed information.
