I have video footage from within this compound  over the past 12 years when its buildings were intact--before they were 'rubblelized', when they disappeared with their history with the MOD etc........many photos I have of this area---A year ago in 2020 the gates were open as often happens--the security cameras redundant now but I remember the  men in their  crisp white shirts  and caps with binoculars within the 'Look-out' area when the place was still partially active------when the high fences  did mean Keep Out----the sheep graze here now and I believe  the land is now owned by the National Trust---today is just a very brief  view and memories shared with another walker  who was also just passing by........Down by the River Banwell estuary rare visiting birds can be seen gathering on the muddy banks---loads of history here over the centuries. Loads more videos to follow over the next weeks as I share unpublished  walks --reflective wanders in beauty-----------
