Yes this was where the sims were, and the safety & emergency procedures training (SEP) was for cabin crew. In fact when we went in 2014 for our FT sim outing, the visit was to Cranebank.

British Airways 747 Flight Training FT mini Do – October 2014
By the time we went in late 2015 most if not all the sims had been moved to the new location in TBA. The SEP area was also relocated to TBC, but not everything was moved across and the mock 747 & 737 were left abandoned in Cranebank.
BotB had also organised FT outings to the safety courses which took place at Cranebank, this one was in 2014
Flight Safety Awareness Course Interest?
Some photos from the sim visit in 2014, we were taken around the SEP area as well:
The 737 mock cabin was where they did a lot of their emergency evacuation training.
