This building has been described as the only station the Royal Navy had which was capable of intelligence gathering at the outbreak of World War One.

It was based at Stockton and became part of a network of sites feeding information to the military. The "Y Station" has been described as the first line of defence against Zeppelin raids.

A local historian describes how staff slept in bunks on site. Radio masts were dotted around the building, which were powered by large batteries. The house was purchased from the Navy in the 1920's and has been a private home since then.
