    Arrow Douglaswood Home Chain Radar Station, January 2013

    Douglaswood Home Chain Radar Station is a few miles outside of Dundee and next to Douglaswood Scouts camp



    Waveguide tunnel





    Service Trench, these contained the electrical service and the waveguides







    Water tank Tower



    Transmitter Block











    A PYE reciever found in the transmitter block







    Air Raid Shelter





    The Surveyor and myself.





    The site is now being used by someone who has horses (the house next door) and their dog sleeps in one of the buildings.

    Good stuff Miss Sazza
    The only thing to do with good advice is pass it on. It is never any use to oneself.

    The Guard horses are friendly! I called one Bob (probably not its real name).
