Q. I wonder what on earth this building could be?
A. If I've told you once I've told you four times!

Obviously a range of signs fixed to the building to test for:
a. Visibility
b. Weatherproofness
c. Design and colour scheme
d. To be sure, to be sure, to be sure, to be sure

Like the badge itself, signage designed by committee.

I know we're going off topic here, but, NAH, a camel is like the moose here in Canada. Made up by God with the spare bits left over after He finished with everything else!

Ten posts, none of them tell me what the building is! . I drive past it most days and have wondered what they do in there.

It's the security lodge isn't it? Or it used to be in the days of the RUC.
