Hidden bunker under White Cliffs of Dover opens to public | BBC News

These hidden World War Two plotting rooms were buried and forgotten until they were rediscovered by the National Trust in 2017.

The Fan Bay Plotting Room, beneath the White Cliffs of Dover, housed pioneering military technology during the war.

In 1940, with the Germans threatening invasion, Winston Churchill ordered the building of secret tunnels to control the guns that would be the first line of defence.

After years of work by volunteers and The National Trust, the underground room has been rediscovered under tonnes of soil and will open to the public.
