This Nuclear Bunker is at Lepe Country Park , Hampshire overlooking the beach and the Solent. For years relatives of mine came here when on their holidays and enjoyed the park right next to the beach. There was an Ice Cream van parked right by this overgrown compound – and there is the Nuclear Bunker. How many folk have been on that park and never noticed it? I have been going there for years and have ran past it every time I’ve been there but never noticed it.
Hiding in plain sight I think they call this, I got some looks just taking pictures of what looks like a few manhole covers. The ice-cream man nearby knew all about it and said the BBC had been there recently doing a piece on it for local history.
It was in decent condition considering it’s close the sea and gets all the weather blowing in. The brown container nearby is the lifeguard station for use in the summer. Note the white VW van in the top left corner of one of the pictures – they get everywhere!
