Lead or Rumour info - RAF Trimingham possibly closing

[The_Construct]

Looking along the Norfolk Coast for interesting sites. This may be one to keep an eye on, the bunker may become accessible in the next few years if it falls out of MOD hands, again.

From WikiPedia: "In July 2022, it was announced that the radar at RAF Trimingham would be moved 8 miles (13 km) to RAF Neatishead due to the threat of coastal erosion and the increased interference experienced by operators from the off-shore wind turbines, the move is expected to be completed by the end of 2023. The future of the current site including the mothballed R1 (Rotor Bunker) single level nuclear bunker and associated surface buildings remains unclear at the present time."

Yeah been keeping an eye on this. They are getting on well with the reconstruction of the golf ball at Neatishead..

Nice, I'm probably around that way over the weekend, might swing by and take a gander myself.

News to me, I've always found that site quite fascinating when driving between Cromer and Mundlesley.
