Active station would have been located on highest part of the building next to other aerials and chimneys. No GNSS antenna visible.

TP7742 Antenna would have been on the rectangular box at the top of the building.

The building is part of the James Hutton Institute. There are many items on the roof area but nothing that looks like a Lieca. Tried at the reception but she had no idea. http://www.hutton.ac.uk/

Strange collection on the Institute roof.
