The Raven Posted August 27, 2010 Share Posted August 27, 2010 Well. I heard about 10 years ago from an old boy in the local pub that our land hid a huge bunker, he remembers the diggers and army working on it. I dismissed it as him being old and forgetful Well today the same thing happened to one of my sales reps, mentioned where i lived and a different old boy went into the same tale of a huge underground bunker complex. Question is how do i find it! If i knew it was there i wouldnt rest until i was inside it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

evinX Posted August 27, 2010 Share Posted August 27, 2010 Few mates, beers, lights and shovels? sounds cool! but id be all scared of finding skeletons and stuff, do a google search and see if anything comes up, or go to your local museum!

dazla Posted August 27, 2010 Share Posted August 27, 2010 Ooooh there could be all sorts in that bunker. Have you got a metal detector. At least that will be your excuse to if anyone pulls you. I'd just have to get some digging done. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Raven Posted August 27, 2010 Author Share Posted August 27, 2010 I know there's one around my way thats all filled in, where abouts are you in kent, it might be the same one. Monkton. What i was told, that should manston airport be bombed into the ground then this bunker was to command air raids over europe. Supposedly it was all hush hush so i dont think it will show anywhere if said old boys are correct. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Raven Posted August 27, 2010 Author Share Posted August 27, 2010 I would imagine that something of this size would show on over head photos? An inprint or something? The fields are mostly flat. I need some kind of meter that would bounce off something hidden at depth Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LOL, not sure the horses will enjoy the field being dug to high heaven. However if i could prove there is something there then all bets are off till i get in. I dont see any signs of vents, hatches ect. Something of that supposed size would need them? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pistonbroke Posted August 27, 2010 Share Posted August 27, 2010 The link that Nevins posted was to Monkton in Witshire. I'm not sure thats the same one your old boy is talking about. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nope this old boy was raised on the farm down the road from my house. He remembers seeing the diggers and army here, he says the thing that sticks in his head was the amount to earth they dug out.

Josh Posted August 27, 2010 Share Posted August 27, 2010 Sounds interesting! If you are going to start digging, I'm in too! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BazzaAlpine Posted August 27, 2010 Share Posted August 27, 2010 Have you tried using google maps to check the layout of your land? You can normally see things like where pipes are berried if you've got a good eye. Something like a bunker should give something visible from the air.

Just done that and seen what appers to be a straight line cutting though 4 of the fields. Unless its a water pipe its way to straight not to be be man made.
