A small cache, just big enough for a logbook and a geocoin. This cache can be wet underfoot and watch out for the golfers.
Since its inception in 1925 as in integral part of the UK air defence system, the primary role of the Royal Observer Corps (ROC) was the recognition and identification of hostile aircraft. With the start of the cold war and the increasing threat of nuclear attack in the 1950's, the ROC was given the added responsibility of reporting nuclear bursts and monitoring fall-out which necessitated the construction of 1563 underground monitoring posts throughout Great Britain & Northern Ireland.
This cache is placed at the ROC Bridge of Weir post. Its now disused and in poor condition. When I visited it the hatch was unlocked and access was possible.. I don't advise it though....!!!
Have a look at the web-site for the ROC stations through-out Britian. I'm planning on doing a few more caches near these interesting places.
