The Building
The older part 1960’s building served as the TACAN;-A tactical air navigation system used by the British military aircraft to find the bearing and distance to a ground or ship.
The building remained in a derelict state since the departure of the British RAF. THE CLIFFS Interpretation Centre is constructed within the committed site of the TACAN and is not taking any ‘new’ land. This is a positive beginning for such a project that will help to protect and promote the surrounding fauna and flora.
