RAF Portland
RAF Portland is a former Royal Air Force radar station on the Isle of Portland, Dorset, England. The station is situated in the Verne area, overlooking East Weares. It is now the site of Fancy's Family Farm. The vast radar installations once on site were set up in the early 1950s as part of Britain's Cold War defences. At 70 feet below ground level the site's bunker was the deepest Rotor underground facility. In 2004, the site became a scheduled monument.
