St Annes

St Annes Watchman has been replaced by a Raytheon ASR10, a similar fate as to other NATS Watchman radars (Gatwick, Heathrow, Allanshill, Stansted, Cromer and Manchester).

Warton, Liverpool, Manchester, Blackpool (?) and ScATCC at some point took/take a feed. As indicated Swanwick take a feed into their Multi Radar Tracking.

Over the years St Annes site has contracted from the large field supporting two Marconi 264 50cm radars to a compound for one ASR10.

Was it ever a Military site??
