Report - Nuclear Bunker Nottingham - February 2011

[Mattdisney]

Hi all,

I was fortunate enough to discover this old nuclear bunker. Now, as this is still a "live" site, I only took pictures with my point and shoot. You don't want to draw too much attention to yourself do you :mrgreen:

I don't know any history of this depot, and the www doesn't tell you anything either.
The building containing the bunker looks quite new. The depot is the base of Rushcliffe Borough Councils Recycling2go scheme.

In all fairness, there isn't a great deal to see, as most of the rooms down there ane now used for storing archives. The bunker itself has a total of 11 rooms. I didn't take pictures of them all as they were just full of shelves and files

Anyway, on with the pictures........

Enjoy


This is the sight that greeted me on driving up towards the main building

Thanks for looking
