Station description
The wireless was concealed in the attic of 55 Coast Road, Redcar, the home of Mr and Mrs Harrison. There was a false roof used to hide the wireless. There was evidence of an aerial mounting on the eastern end gable of the house. The upper floor of the house provided a good view of Tees Bay and the main coast road. Mr Harrison's daughter could remember the Royal Signals men visiting.
