Overview

• The Tulliers uncovered the 26-foot-deep bunker in Torteval after excavating about 100 tonnes of earth following a tip from the previous owner’s daughter.
• The structure comprises two main chambers measuring 17×10 ft and 17×20 ft plus a 30×4 ft corridor featuring German inscriptions like “achtung feind hört mit.”
• To secure the site, the couple has reinforced walls and steps with 80 tonnes of concrete.
• They are fitting the space with a snooker table and gym equipment and aim to finish flooring and painting by November.
• The discovery highlights Guernsey’s lasting wartime legacy and local efforts to preserve occupation-era fortifications.
