This small complex is attached to R.N.A.S Yeovilton and its exact purpose is not known to me. I’m still researching the site so feel free to chip in if you have any info. It’s certainly being maintained as the grounds are tidy, the grass is mown and there was machine noise coming from inside the main building. There is asbestos in the buildings but apart from that it’s quite a relaxed explore.

There have been one or two guesses at what this was used for but I’d welcome further input. The mast arrays in front of the main building have been suggested as VLF. There is a ROC post no more than 100 metres from the site.

Main mast, air traffic related I believe
