From this building, Radar returns from German aircraft were triangulated and RAF fighter attacks were coordinated.

The site is currently under restoration, but the RAF operations room of the surface WWII SOC will be open to the public.</p><p><strong>GLOBAL CONNECTIONS</strong></p><p>Global Connections, albeit negative ones, are the entire reason for this facility.
