Overview
- The Hallen site will be auctioned on Sept. 25 by David Plaister Ltd. Auctions, coordinated by Sophie Thorne.
- The structure sits on a hillside near the River Severn and is being sold separately from the homeowner’s property.
- Built as part of roughly 1,500 Royal Observer Corps shelters, the post was intended to monitor nuclear blast waves and fallout.
- The interior remains sparse with peeling paint, basic shelving, two plastic chairs, a metal bed frame, and a crude chemical toilet, with the listing pitching uses such as a wine cellar or safe room.
- A comparable bunker in the Yorkshire Dales listed at £15,000 last year and sold for £48,000, with the buyers later seeking to create a tourist attraction.
