This is the Aylesbury Compressor Station operated by National Grid which is at the end of a 1km long gated private road, which is also a public bridleway, off from the A41. Aylesbury is one of 24 gas compressor stations around the country that maintains gas pressure during periods of high demand. Security fences and cameras were much in evidence though the site was very quiet, probably because it was a Sunday.
