Went here today with mickeylove, mexico75 and their families. And what a fantastic place it really is! Also met theoss and trousercowboy along the way.

Date protected accommodation opened: 16.12.1961

The bunker has been fully restored by English Heritage to its condition at closure in 1991. It looks a little strange now that housing has sprung up around it!

The main ops room contains 1960's colour psychology to calm and help the occupants concentrate during the dark days of a nuclear war.

The building also contains an awdrey unit, one of only 12 in the uk, designed to pinpoint the bombflash and remotely forward the details onward.
