A hexagonal 3 story high concrete observation tower indicated by Riley to be a radar position. Nearby a portion of machinery (?radar mounting) lies on the ground in long grass. Observation ports have been covered over with
wood and perspex. There is no evidence of heavy steel shutters characteristic of the WW2 period buildings. Access between the floors is via steel ladders. The ground floor of the tower has plastic tiles on the floor and contains a toilet. This adjoins a room, which contains a stainless steel sink, and has steel framed windows.
