Head Harbour Lightstation, aka the 'East Quoddy Light', Campobello Island, New Brunswick.

The cross is NOT apparently the cross of St George, it is just a red cross.

Where is it/What is it/What was it used for ?

I don't know where, but I will hazard half an answer on a "ball" tower - Used for making musket balls.

#246 - Abandoned NSA spy station: The elevation of Teufelsberg is 377 feet (115 m) but the hill north of Berlin, Germany’s, Grunewald forest was artificially created by the Allies after WWII. The Allies built Devil’s Mountain from about 400,000 buildings that were reduced to rubble during the 20 years after Berlin was rebuilt. The Teufelsberg Towers stand over 262 feet (80 meters) tall. The former U.S. listening station which sits atop Devil’s Mountain was referred to as “The Hill” by American soldiers, spooks and their Allies.
