Not very recent photos but I just found them while looking through some documents.
I like the odd strole around abandoned places, old hospitals (mental asylums) and other such places, and I came across these.
They are situated in a village (well about 2 houses) called Stenigot, next to Donnington On Bain and Cadwel in Lincolnshire.
I was watching a trackday at Cadwell Park and saw these at dusk making my way home and just had to go back and visit them.
Background Info:
RAF Stenigot was a World War 2 radar station situated near Donington on Bain, Lincolnshire, England.
It was part of the Chain Home radar network, intended to provide long range early warning for raids from Luftflotte V and the northern elements of Luftflotte II along the approaches to Sheffield and Nottingham and the central midlands.
After World War II, the site was retained as part of the Chain Home network. In 1959 it was upgraded to a communications relay site as part of the ACE High programme, which involved adding four tropospheric scatter dishes.
The site was decommissioned in the late 1980s and was mostly demolished by 1996.
