Hi Fell Wanderer, thanks for posting.

[@gavingaming123]

Thanks for sharing Damien, this is just down the road from where I live 👍

[@GoonieBushcraft]

Awesome video Damien. I love WW2 history, What an awesome place to explore, and great that it's not been vandalised either. Thank you very much for taking us along buddy. Really enjoyed that. ATB, Jay

[@stevojk]

hi, nice to see you found that one, me and my son explored that few years ago, interesting to see the one near selkirk tho. more intact that Newtown St Boswells

[@trevpackerphotography]

Great find Damien, love these old buildings so much history must be undiscovered and buried. I guess the constant water around there has washed the silt through.

[@sconjaoutdoors7658]

A cool little pocket of history Damien. A very interesting find mate, Indianna Jones eat ya heart out. Cheers Damien

[@johnbacon1854]

great to see this place almost untouched. Nice find.

[@GhostHawkPrepper]

[@alexkid1982]

Impressive find there Damien!

[@CarlinoNegro]

[@G0ingNative]

Great find, thanks for sharing.

[@brianpollock9948]

I live bout half hour walk from this I walk along river from Newtown and pretty much brings you straight to it also saves walking or parking at side of main road..

[@killingloneleyness01]

is it still accesable or has it been filled in do u know?

[@blamhof]

Great bit of hidden history Damian. Thanks for sharing bud. Mick.

[@Fell_Wanderer]

Thanks Mick, I saw you a couple of days ago walking down Stakeford Lane near the school, you had Ruby with you. Would have stopped but was on my way to Ashington with the family and was a line of traffic behind so the road was busy. Next time will stop and say hello. ATB.

[@blamhof]

Be over your way a lot in the future, we are taking over the wool shop on the square on Sep 1st. You will have to call in for a coffee bud.

[@Fell_Wanderer]

I will my friend and hope to go on many a wild camping adventure.. see you soon..

[@Fell_Wanderer]

will be watching for you on the square.. atb mate.

[@NorwegianWoods]

That is a cool place. Thanks for taking us along :) - Martin

[@thenorthumbrian4927]

Hi mate thanks for sharing. Amazzzing great video keep them coming. ATB Chris.

[@Fell_Wanderer]

Thanks Chris, I tried to send you a message but can't pm you from here, must be something in the settings?.. I made a short video about the knife, took some pics and gave my initial impressions before using it in the field. Is there any information you want me to mention regarding your channel and knife making?.. you have 2 channels so not sure which one to plug but you deserve a mention as you're knife making is very good. Took it fishing today, it feels very comfortble to wear on the belt, I don't even know its there unlike my TBS Boar which is heavier and can feel it hanging. It is razor sharp, even after some wood carving. I'll use it in future videos and mention it those as well. Also I've got some programs you might be interested in, mapping software and video editing, I'll tell you more when I see you next or you can email me [e-mail]

[@RS.Outdoors]

Interesting stuff. Like visiting old places like that myself. Atb Ray.

[@tonymontanner]

Cracking stuff, thanks for sharing.

[@aar5pj]

These places are part of your history. They should be restored and preserved.

[@simonlewis5307]

Excellent find that mate

[@NymeriaMeliae]

Interesting video... thanks for sharing. I knew about the auxiliary units but wasn't aware that there were still bunkers about or that they were that well made.

[@Fell_Wanderer]

Some bunkers are still around, the ones in remote locations are in the best condition. Some have been destroyed as they were a danger to kids. Some were removed to make way for later development so its important to record what remains for the hustorical record. ATB.

[@mischef18]

Nice one bro, Got a few gun emplacements around the NZ coast but nothing like this. Watched a couple of guys checking out an underground hospital in Newfoundland on U toob a couple of months ago.

[@JBOutdoorsAndMore]

nice intro. and video. great work.

[@themuss28]

very interesting vid mate looks awesome that bunker thanks for sharing

[@Fell_Wanderer]

Thanks Muss, I wonder if Britains wildest camper would dare do a camp in one of those ;-)

[@themuss28]

+Fell Wanderer he's too scared pmsl

[@RatandCat]

Nice. I'm always fascinated by bunkers and would kind of like to build one just for the sake of it.

[@englishwoodsman]

hi mate could you do a wild camp in there ??? if I was you I would give it a go

[@GreencampRhodie]

Great ramble. Wonder who those 6 handprints @7.13 belong to ??

[@andyshields1280]

Just visited bunker today. Escape route found, main entrance very hard to find as now filled in, can just see a couple bricks.

[@Fell_Wanderer]

Sad to hear, the OB near me was destroyed because kids were playing in and were at risk of a collapse.At least we still have the video and history to look back on.

[@FinWildcamper]

Looked a crackin Place to do WildCamp with the Cheviot Yeti, there is Quite a few of these in Lincolnshire on the Coast line ..and in land ive always fancied doing a camp in one... Great video DamianATB Paul

[@Fell_Wanderer]

A lot of Auxiliary Unit bunkers were near the coast all down the east of England. Thats one of the places the Germans would have invaded first. I was going to camp in one but they are dark, damp and there is always the worry they may collapse on top of you. ATB, Damian.

[@monicajones8450]

Oh Gosh Damien, you be careful in such places. It is a cool find, how stable are they?

[@Fell_Wanderer]

They can be unstable due to the age of them. There is only about 3 feet of soil on top but could still hurt you if they cave in. Damian.

[@hypnobabes]

Another good one

[@Yorkshiremadmick]

The cold water tank was cos, when they were locked in, on operations, they wouldn’t be able to pop out to the stream to get water, plus that would need treating.

[@ianhenderson8146]

Have you looked at the cew sites, there's some pretty cool ones about if you like this sort of stuff

[@Fell_Wanderer]

I haven't looked into those site, been researching ROC bunkers but the ones around my area are locked and not accessable. if you know of any interesting places to visit in Northumberland or nearby I'd love to know, ATB.

[@ianhenderson8146]

+Fell Wanderer there's a coulple of roc bunkers here, am in County Durham, one was accessible the last time I was up there and the other is now filled in, but you can still walk round it and get an idea of the size of it, if you fancy a look one day drop me a message 👍

[@wellsgb1957]

Nice one!

[@ScotsWildcamper]

That'll make a great den lol. It looks like the sort of place the local nutters might live in Damien. Very interesting to see these sort of places i was at Guernsey as a lad and remember the bunkers and the huge underground hospital , great stuff.

[@GreencampRhodie]

I've been to that underground hospital and military unit....amazing, humbling, spooky!

[@ScotsWildcamper]

RhodieFreedomCamp Yes its a along time since i was there but it seemed to go for miles yes spooky for sure.

[@Fell_Wanderer]

The kids seem to find those forgotten bunkers first and turn them into dens Eddie, the one at Selkirk has swastikas and German eagles painted on by the local youth. I love the history surrounding these places, the wife lived in Guernsey as a child and she remembers bunkers and used to play in them. ATB.

[@MOOSEDOWNUNDER]

Made to last. Nice. ATB Moose.

[@Markam248]

pretty cool

[@leegrant1800]

A quick question for you have you not thought about using this place to store your gear for when you go wild camping. By the way you make fantastic KZbin videos✌️✌️✌️

[@Fell_Wanderer]

That bunker is in Scotland too far away and the gear would get discovered as these places are well known, thanks for watching

[@BritishResistanceArchive]

Nice one buddy. Please can we add to the page.

[@Fell_Wanderer]

Yes you can, its important to share and preserve our history. ATB, Damian.

[@BritishResistanceArchive]

Thanks Buddy. It's now on the site. Great work.

sorry for the late reply NT 58174 33271

[@susanthomson4474]

Spent months trying to find time to go look for this ‘secret’ bunker, having gone today was totally disappointed to find that the land owner filled in the bunker around 4 months ago, such a shame as this will become another forgotten location, have no idea why the lady deemed this necessary 🙁🙁🙁

[@Fell_Wanderer]

Its a shame that this has happened, maybe the land owner didn't want people wandering onto her land or was done for safety reasons as kids will often play in them. There are lots that have been destroyed and some that have yet to be found, thanks for the info, atb

[@wulliescottishoutdoors]

Alright mate love finding shelters and pill boxs etc very interesting, I've got a couple videos on my page with ones I came across if you fancy a nosey. Atb wullie 🏕️⛰️
