This old and neglected building is near the site of the old Post Office radio research laboratories. It carried out important (but perhaps not exactly top secret) work during WWII, then spend many years investigating various radio technology and environmental factors before closing in the 1970s. It looks like the buildings were built quickly and abandoned with equal haste.
