List of Royal Observer Corps / United Kingdom Warning and Monitoring Organisation Posts (Q–Z) facts for kids

Kids Encyclopedia Facts

The Royal Observer Corps (ROC) was a group of volunteers in the United Kingdom. Their main job was to watch for enemy aircraft during World War II. After the war, during the Cold War, their role changed. They became super important for monitoring nuclear attacks.

These volunteers worked in special underground bunkers called nuclear monitoring posts. These posts were part of the United Kingdom Warning and Monitoring Organisation (UKWMO). Their job was to detect nuclear explosions and measure the fallout. This information would help the government warn people and plan for survival.

This page lists many of these secret underground posts. They are organized alphabetically, and you can find more lists here:

Important Things to Know About These Posts

  • Many of these underground bunkers are still around today. They are often on private land. You must get permission from the owner before you try to find or visit them.
  • Most of the bunkers that are still standing are old and falling apart. They can be very unsafe. Please be careful and do not enter them without proper safety measures and permission.
  • The counties listed in the table are how they were at the time the posts were active. Some county names or borders might be different today.
