    Arrow Raf Stenigot

    My second visit to this site the last being last winter. I wanted to try out some new techniques and have a different approach to the site.Visited with non member Dubchester a little history .....


    RAF Stenigot was a World War II radar station situated at Stenigot. near Donington on Bain, Lincolnshire, England.
    It was part of the Chain Home radar network, intended to provide long range early warning for raids from Luftflotte V and the northern elements of Luftflotte II along the approaches to Sheffield and Nottingham and the central midlands.
    After World War II, the site was retained as part of the Chain Home network. In 1959 it was upgraded to a communications relay site as part of the ACE High program, which involved adding four tropospheric scatter dishes.
    The site was decommissioned in the late 1980s and was mostly demolished by 1996.
