Subbrit last reported on this place 10 years ago so I have decided to do a full 'walk through' report with pictures referencing the building layout. This has taken me ages but worth recording.
Unfortunately the building has been badly fire damaged but there are still some interesting things to see.
The building is now used for 'LazerQuest' and 'Airsoft' games but not paintball (which is done in the WW2 Sector Ops block next door - report later)
Thanks to John, Nigel and the guys for access
View from the carpark - looks quite tidy
Only the front has been re-painted. The rest has been left as found.
Entrance - main entrance on left. Filter room entrance on right.
Surface blockhouse building plan. All pictures ref the rooms as listed in the plan.
Airlock looking back at the entrance - severe fire damage.
'Hotbox' for disposing of contaminated clothing in the Decontamination room.
One of Toilet rooms
One of the Dormitorys
Looking back up the spine corridor towards the entrance
The GPO room - Near right goes to storage area under the stairs. Far right goes into the PABX room and then onto the Control Room
The kitchen
The Canteen - the kitchen serving hatch is on the right hand wall.
The top of the stairs with the the tank room straight ahead. The first door on the left goes to the Control Room balcony and the second left goes to the Comms room.

Generator room

Finally outside again and at the rear of the building is what looks like the Isotope Store - this is where they would store radioactive samples to calibrate Radiac instruments.
And thats it
