Battle of Britain Bunker
Royal Air Force WWII operations room
About
The Battle of Britain Bunker is an underground operations room at RAF Uxbridge, formerly used by No. 11 Group Fighter Command during the Second World War. Fighter aircraft operations were controlled from there throughout the War but most notably during the Battle of Britain and on D-Day. Today it is run by Hillingdon Council as a heritage attraction with attached museum. The museum was opened in 1985, with an above ground visitor centre opened in March 2018.
The Bunker is located at RAF Uxbridge, not far from Uxbridge town centre and Uxbridge Underground station.
