Does anyone know of a (redundant) control tower - eg WW2 - in Essex or Suffolk that I could borrow for a few hours for a filming project? Just need the top bit with all the glass windows. Ta!

How about RAF Martlesham Heath, east of Ipswich?

The control tower there is now a musuem according to Wikipedia:

You could try contacing RAF Parham (Framlingham) - http://www.parhamairfieldmuseum.co.uk/

They are closed now for the winter so no public to get in the way, if they are up for opening up for you.

Thanks for the idea everyone - the 'glasshouse' is the bit we need so I've contacted the best ones and we'll see if they want to join in smile
