ROC Monitoring Post • Worth Matravers


Royal Observer Corp Monitoring Post

Would have once been manned by volunteers from the Royal Observer Corps, who would be responsible for reporting nuclear blasts and monitoring fallout, should they have happened, during the Cold War. 

This one was opened in 1962 and closed in 1991.

As far as I'm aware this one is still complete underground, though now rather overgrown above it.
