R.O.C, Royal Observer Corps. A large group of people who were employed during the cold war to act as an early detection system in the event of a nuclear strike. I have only ever done two of these and to be honest thats all ill ever need to do, some people get bent out of shape with ROC posts, as if they were the greatest underground relic known to man. Well there not in fact if your break it down its a very small concrete box buried just a few ft below the surface.
The only interesting bit to an ROC post is the stuff that had been left behind. Old bits of paperwork, Teletalks, uniforms and diaries and other bits and pieces. The pictures above are of a fairly well kept post, probably one of the top ten in regards to the fact it looks the same as when it was closed.
Enjoy the pictures and expect nothing more on this subject!.
