Report - Grampian Council Emergency Bunker, Tertowie, Aberdeenshire, February 2009

[zimbob]

This was a proper bonus explore, we were visiting Tertowie school, and found this little gem accessible

A little background info, courtesy of SubBrit :

Grampian Regional Council Emergency Centre was located beneath the gym of Tertowie House a residential school (now disused) at Blackburn north west of Aberdeen. The bunker was opened in 1962 as the NORTH EAST SECTOR CIVIL DEFENCE CORPS GROUP CONTROL and remained in use until the end of Civil Defence Corps in 1968. It was reactivated and modernised in 1987 finally closing in 1998

Always inviting

Great to get into this place, it was virtually untouched too
