This Royal Observer Corps nuclear bunker opened in 1962 and was closed in 1968. Little remains to be seen today apart from the small concrete hatch structure and the slightly raised ground at the top of the mound, under which the bunker was built. The air vents have long since gone and the bunker itself has now been filled in with stones and rubble to prevent access - the top of the ladder can still be seen inside the hatchway.
