The Buildings

The Admiralty Test Cell occupies a bare piece of grassland to the east of the Fairways Transformer Park. This southern view reveals the brick built blockhouse appended to the back the building (for fuel/water supplies and power switchgear), a lone second floor window to the left (the room where there’s access to the turbine hall gantry) and a large doorway (which gives access to the workshop beneath the offices).

Note the huge exhaust vent exiting the building across the roof of the blockhouse.
