The World War II air traffic control building 400 metres north west of Seckington Cross is a scheduled ancient monument located on the former RAF Winkleigh airfield in Devon. Constructed during the Second World War, the structure served as a vital component of the airfield's operational infrastructure, directing aircraft movements and maintaining communications during combat operations. The building retains physical characteristics typical of wartime air traffic control facilities of the period, reflecting the functional design requirements of the Royal Air Force during the 1940s. Its designation as an ancient monument recognises its historical significance as evidence of Britain's aerial defence infrastructure and the technological systems supporting the air campaign during the war.
