HY4609 : The Black Building
near to Berstane, Orkney Islands, Great Britain
The Black Building
This nondescript and downright ugly building is in a poor state of repair but has a glorious history; during WW2 all military flights in and over Orkney were controlled from here. Various suggestions have been made about what to do with it, including a wartime museum, and demolition.
