Friends of Friendless Churches. The 35 acre, secret subterranean Cold War City that lies 100 feet beneath Corsham. — War History Online. Many people in the UK will know about and even have visited the Cabinet War Room and Paddock in London, the government emergency war headquarters up until the end of World War II but very few people will know anything about the secret bunker which took over from these sites in the early 60s.
The emergency government war headquarters in Corsham is one of the MOD’s best kept secrets. Although conspiracy theorists have pestered the MOD and urban explorers have pushed their limits around the bunker no member of the public has ever seen inside. For the last few decades, although known about despite the MOD denials, no details or photos of the bunker have leaked out through the blast proof walls until very recently. The bunker has gone through many different codenames in the past, including Hawthorn Central Government War Headquarters, Stockwell, Subterfuge, Turnstile and Burlington, over recent years it has been referred to by the MOD as Site 3.

Journalist famed for WWII scoop turns 100. Updated Tue 11 Oct 2011, 10:00am AEDT Veteran British war correspondent Clare Hollingworth, who broke the story that World War II had started, has turned 100 in Hong Kong as her memoir nears completion.
The centenarian was set to celebrate the occasion with journalists and friends at the Hong Kong Foreign Correspondents' Club (FCC), where she has been a regular in the past three decades since moving to the city in 1981. "She is very respected and admired by all of us," club president Anna Healy Fenton said of Ms Hollingworth, one of two goodwill ambassadors of the FCC. The veteran journalist, who witnessed the horrors of war in Vietnam, Algeria, the Middle East, India and Pakistan, is best remembered for her scoop on World War II in 1939 when she was just a rookie reporter.
