Found this[1] as well while poking about - fairly tall structure, unique curved shape, nothing but a road, some outbuildings and some antenna masts for miles in any direction. Thoughts on what it might be?

No obvious parking, otherwise could be employee accommodation of some sort. Hard to tell how narrow those spines are. I'm guessing four storeys tall?
