RAF Bempton
RAF Bempton
This underground bunker is a 'ROTOR' radar station built in the 1950s at the start of the cold war. Behind it is the original WW2 Chain Home Low (CHL) Radar station. The caravan park in the village was the domestic site with married quarters and billets
This is a very dangerous installation full of asbestos and flooding and no attempt should be made to enter or trespass on the land
