NF7571 : Cleitreabhal a'Deas

3 km from Baile Raghnill, Na h-Eileanan an Iar, Great Britain

Cleitreabhal a'Deas

Air defence radar for the north west of Britain. Now that the Russians have resumed wasting kerosene by flying long range sorties over the North Atlantic, this place is again really earning its keep.
This is not the rocket range tracking station for the Benbecula/South Uist rocket range. This is on site but not shown here.

Thanks to Ian Bramwell for the information.
