Radar tower, Great Baddow
One of the many transmitter towers of the 'Chain Home' WWII defensive radar system erected mainly along the eastern coasts, and the only one to survive more or less intact. It was originally installed at Canewdon, and moved here in 1953, after the system became outmoded, to further Marconi's radar and radio research. It is steel, the receiver towers were wood, and none survive.
