Definitely not a sheep. Definitely a ballistic missile detection system. Best tourist pick in the area. Would recommend.

Very good as a radar facility for the MOD and possibly NORAD. Last time I heard, it did help them too.If it's helping to protect NATO and most of the Northern Hemisphere, then it's a good facility. As far as I know, Solid State arrays are a lot more reliable than the big golf balls, so clearly the base has gotten better over the years.

Don't just drive past. Take an hour or so to check out the Moor itself

Actually worked on the construction of the 'Golf Ball', in the early 60's. Mechquip provided the Mobile Cranes and the parent Company was Wood, Pritchett & Partners. Brought back a few memories.

Really good at being a radar and detecting things that fly - therefore it does its job well. Best radar system in Yorkshire, and if it's best int' Yorkshire it's best int' world

Used to work there installing the fire alarm systems. A great place in a lovely part of the country.

From a distance I didn't know what it was, butwhen you get closer you can really see the raf base. Very cool to drive past it through the beautiful moors of North Yorkshire!

I like Radar. Very useful if you want to detect errant Ballistic Missiles from east.Also has a substantial garden with Sheeps and fluffy things.
