Navigation System on Bristol Britannia

I'm aware the Britannias did not have inertial navigation ( first used on B-707 , VC10) can those of you acquainted with that aircraft provide any details on how crews carried out oceanic navigation. No astrodome readily identifiable on the aircraft.

While it obviously had VOR, ADF, radar, maybe Decca not much use over high seas without ground cooperation.
