Trafford Town Hall Nuclear Bunker Manchester.

[Trampit]

Here's a few pics that were taken of the nuclear bunker under my local town hall.
I found it after exploring the upper floors. This was my favorite part of the explore though, loved it.

The steps leading down to the bunker.



The thick re enforced concrete doors on all the entrances.







There were loads of corridors lined with thick steel doors, lots were still locked though.





The generator.



And control panel.



Parts of the water treatment facility.





Signs





Home Office communication equipment.



Massive store rooms. (maybe for food etc?)





Not sure what this was for, maybe something to do with the air filtration system?



The ducting seemed to lead to the outside.



Theres a morgue down here somewhere but sadly I didn't manage to find it, the place was huge.

Sweet as mate thanks for sharing

Nice mate, there must be hundreds of these dotted round the country waiting to be photographed

Very cool, im surprised they had one in Trafford as the labour council areas were generally anti nuclear and i think ive seen images from when Manchester declared itself a "nuclear free zone" back in the 80's.

Funny you should say that, Trafford is the only Tory Council in Greater Manchester, I knew nothing of Labour being Anti Nuclear but it makes sense now you mention it.

Theres an interactive map that shows the government held councils here.

Your spot on Ernie, http://www.culture24.org.uk/history+...itage/art30726

Nice one, I've learned something new today.

Ive always wondered the point of a Nucleur Bunker. Surely after the dust had settled youd have to leave at some point?! Id rather be blown away that die slowly. Hmmm lol.

Ace mate - Like others said I bet there's loads of these dotted around that are waiting for people like us!
