We visited Osmotherley R.O.C. post on 6-1-08, found it very interesting especially a piece of 1966 newspaper with that weeks Top 10 record chart. The inside is much the same as your 2001 photos show. I have several photos showing the interior on flickr at. www.flickr.com/photos/dte51/
Thanks, Dave.

The above ground structure looks to be the base of one of the original wartime above ground posts that were used for aircraft reporting. There aren’t many of those still about.
