RNAD Dean Hill, Wiltshire

6th January 2008

I had a little look at the underground magazins at Dean Hill Royal Naval Armament Depot today. I was a bit pissed off i could not get up to number 1 magazine which would have ocasionly temporarily housed nuclear materials.
Never mind.
Dean hill opened in 1941 for the storage, inspection and maintenance of naval armaments. The primary task of the depot was storage of munitions in a series of 24 underground magazines excavated in the chalk hillside.
Dean hill closed in 2004 and is now privately owned by a company offering workshops, offices and temperature and humidity controlled vaults cut into a chalk hillside. As a result of that most of the magazins that i looked at are now locked and have cctv.
