Shoreham National Coastwatch Institution Station. Shoreham-by-Sea, Sussex.

---

The building was built in WW2. It was one of two buildings built to house large lights to find ships out at sea so that the guns on Shoreham Fort could find the angle and distance of the ships. It was abandoned at the end of the war and the open frontage was bricked. It remained unused until NCI acquired the use of the building in 2008.
