The Control room is a mezzanine room above the Plotting Room.

It has glass windows which look straight onto the plotting table so staff could see clearly what was going on.

Operatives were connected to senior staff by way of this tube which was situated at one end of the desk.

When important information had to be passed quickly the staff spoke into the tube.

Today the control room retains the original equipment.
