Nuclear bunker redevelopment set to be given the green light
Nottingham Post
|November 14, 2025
PLANS to redevelop a Cold War bunker and build more than 100 affordable homes around the site have been recommended for approval.
-
The Grade II listed bunker, known as the Nottingham War Rooms, is off Chalfont Drive in Beechdale.
Built in the 1950s, the bunker was designed to house a regional commissioner and government staff in the event of a nuclear war.
Under plans, 104 affordable homes would be built around the site, while the bunker itself could be transformed into a base for youth charity Base 51.
An old BBC recording studio, which would have broadcast news in the event of nuclear war, will be retained as a heritage asset, while food and drink outlets, a leisure facility, a media studio and an office space would be created.
