Summary[edit]
| Description |
English: The overgrown concrete bases of the wooden mast that one stood here, adjacent to the receiver block of RAF West Beckham radar station which was located on Osier Lane in the parish of Bodham, Norfolk, United Kingdom. This modern mast is located on the site of the former site of RAF West Beckham, which had close links with the local fighter station RAF Matlask. It was opened in 1938 and comprised a transmitter and receiver site, a generator site and underground reserves. The base reported to the filter room at RAF Watnall which was the HQ to No. 12 Group RAF, and the station was originally parented to RAF Bircham Newton, followed by later RAF Wittering and finally RAF Coltishall. |
