[Work in progress - operational stations around Purbeck]

  
There was an Oboe radio navigation station at Durlston on the site of what is now the Durlston Country Park Visitor Centre.  The station went under the code name of 'Tilly Whim' and operated as one of a pair to help bomber aircraft pinpoint targets on the continent.  This played an important role forn the D-Day landings in  194?4?
