Secret Spy Base

I’m not sure what they do there, but I’m pretty sure this complex used to be signposted as Secret Spy Base or something along those lines. The signs are now long gone, and it doesn’t look like it was ever terrible secret really, does it?

    Secret! In 1986, on a family holiday, we stopped for a guided tour that the Post Office provided for visitors, going all up in the control rooms and stuff. After the PO became Telecom, they got more serious about security and stopped the public tours, but built a visitor centre instead. School parties were welcome.

    Secret? SECRET?! Lol secret.

    And to answer your question, it used to be Telecom NZ’s main satellite dish. It’s now leased to AUT for astronomy.
