RAF Ringstead was part of the Chain Home (CH) and Chain Home Low (CHL) transmitter/receiver radar. Started in 1940 but too late for the Battle of Britain. It continued service until 1956 by then using the new 'Rotor Radar'. In 1963 part of the site was taken over by the USAF as 2180 Com. Sqn. operating a Tropospheric Scatter System link. This closed down in 1974 and the aerials were removed shortly after.

4 x TX - Transmit aerials steel.
The way Chain Home worked was very like turning a flood light on and pointing it outwards away from where you wish to defend. This (flood light) was four steel framed aerials. Laid out in a straight line pointing towards your enemy. When an aircraft flew into the (flood light), the reflection is bounced off the plane and returned to (east coast four, west coast two, aerials) here two large wooden aerials.
2 x RX - Receiver aerials wooden.
The bounced reflection is received in the two RX bunkers and when seen by the operators, a message would be sent to a filter station. They would work out the threat and then send up fighters to intercept the bombers.
This is a simple description and I hope it helps, there are many websites that explain it better than I can.

The field we can see in this picture shows NO signs of what it once held. There were twin parabolic aerials of the US Airforce Tropospheric Scatter radio-relay link to Spain. The system at Ringstead was operated by the USAF No. 6 Detachment, 2180 Communications Squadron from Dec 1963 to 1974, with the two massive aerial arrays dismantled by March 1975.
