Full Description
Possible World War 2 Radar Station (1). It doesn’t seem likely that there was a World War two radar station here due to the proximity of a Bombing Decoy, and it is probably referring the Cold War Rotor Site at Hack Green (CSMR: 2943/1/0). Also the buildings at the given grid reference are not present on the 1940's aerial photos.
