Lucy’s Log
This cache is close to a former Cold War underground site built to house the Salisbury Urban District Council. The bunker contained a decontamination room, control room, communications room, dormitory and kitchen, and had a standby generator and an escape shaft.
Although the original reason for building this bunker has now long since been overtaken by events with the end of the Cold War, the local Council plans to hand it over to a ‘music for youth’ organisation.
If you are interested in more information about this site, and about other Cold War sites, please visit the website Subterranean Brittanica.
While you have parked up to do this cache, why not go up to the Bishop’s Walk for some stunning views of Salisbury Cathedral and the city, and do GCVYGK – A Glimpse of the 404 Feet’ along the way? The ‘Pippa’s Log’ series is also within easy reach.
