In The Dark: Cold War Cuckfield. The restoration of an ROC nuclear monitoring post bunker

We will then hear about the fate of the hundreds of bunkers that were left throughout the UK and in particular the underground post at Cuckfield which was lovingly restored in 2009/2010 by Mark and friend Ed Combes, and has been opened yearly ever since for the public to visit.
