Report - Otterburn ROC Post - Northumberland - Mar 09'

[turkey]

Solo visit.

Supposed DEMOLISHED.

This post was originally shown to have a BPI in it, so I thought i'd swing past even though it has apparently been taken out.

The area where SatNav says it should be, it isnt anymore, and there is some slightly disturbed ground and a telephone jointing post which could mean its been demo'd.

After looking at the sites of a few demolished roc posts I'm becoming more inclined to think that the top of the shafts get took down and capped then covered over leaving the post covered up but in tact.
I could be completely wrong of course but having seen a fair few sites that's what I think.
Here is a photo I took on 21.6.15 and one taken from the subbrit web page for the post for comparison (17 years earlier)
