This appears to be what English Heritage describes as "main offices" at the former Royal Naval Cordite Factory; built 1915. http://www.imagesofengland.org.uk/Details/Default.aspx?id=482490&mode=adv Most of the extensive site is out of bounds and protected by a high-security fence, apparently because of ground contamination and unsafe structures; some is being redeveloped as "Admiralty Park", business and industrial units. http://www.corfe-castle.demon.co.uk/hh.html
