None of the above I'm afraid.

Gatwick it is.
Anyone know the tower type?
No upstand beam on the roof so not a Watch Office for Night Fighter Stations.
It looks more like a Watch Office for All Commands than anything else.

Shoot! Glad I didn't try to hard. I would never have thought it would be Gatwick.

I'd never have guessed it either. I wonder where the site is now and what's on it!

I did, but purely because of an other post made yesterday!
The Watch Office looks identical to Llandows' to me, which is a 518/40.
Great to see the Fighter pens in detail.

Not a Watch Office with Met Section 518/40, as there's no stairwell sticking out the back.

True! Llandows' was with a Met section, would that have made the difference?

I would go (now!) with 12779/41, counting windows and doorways. I wonder if it has one of those late war glass cupolas on the roof?
