Strumble Height Monitoring Unit

I just had a report from one of my clients that the Strumble Height Monitoring Unit in Wales has been removed. Can anyone verify that? I just spent 45 minutes Googling for the verification and no luck!
Thanks!

RVSM height monitoring. Depends on the aircraft's RVSM certification. Our aircraft requires a HMU verification every 24 months. It can be accomplished by either overflying several HMU stations that are available or with equipment onboard to verify that the aircraft is in fact flying an accurate altitude. Overflights are preferable as they can be done on a routine pax carrying leg.
