Former airfield battle headquarters, Watnall Airfield, Hucknall
A Second World War airfield Battle Headquarters, constructed in 1940 to a non-standard design comprising a below-ground command post and tunnel with a three-storey observation tower above ground. The area was originally woodland, possibly chosen as camouflage from aerial observation, and much of the tree growth has only been removed since around 2016. Listed Grade II in 2020.
