Field Place Mystery - Secret Bunker or Not?

[malcolm erik bogaert]

there is an old aux unit bunker a couple of miles away from me located in the woods...I have been down into it...steops down (steel bars fixed into bricks|) are still in good condition....bunk frame s and water tank still in there...I have tried to get it listed but nobody in authority is interested as the owners of the very big wood(insurance company) would rather the bunker is filled in...as regards secrecy all the old locals in the village new about it as early in the war years it was constructed by a RE unit who drank in the local pub!however none of the local home -guard chaps ever used it apart from the youngest member who was little more than a boy who was used as a mesenger/runner...it was originaly set up by a former famous actor Anthony Quale who commanded N0.23 Aux Unit here in the North...could it be a coincidence that our local SAS(V) Unit is also numbered 23.cheers malcolm
