Couldn't they just have built the bunker in that instead of digging tunnels below the water table nearby? No, because the whole point of the Deep Level Shelters is that they were designed to be adaptable after the War as parts of the Underground network, and "huge cathedral sized cavern(s)" - even if they actually exist - don't fit that criteria. -- Nick Cooper [Carefully remove the detonators from my e-mail address to reply!] The London Underground at War: http://www.cwgcuser.org.uk/personal/...ra/lu/tuaw.htm 625-Online - classic British television: http://www.625.org.uk 'Things to Come' - An Incomplete Classic: http://www.thingstocome.org.uk |
