The Royal Observer Corps Posts were
used during the Cold War period in the event of a nuclear attack.
Three men were posted here at a time and it was their duty to pinpoint
the location of a nuclear detonation and to monitor it's power and the
direction of radioactive fallout. Each post had telephone and radio
links to a main co-ordination centre. This post was opened in May 1962
and closed only a few years later in October 1968.
