RAF Bempton
bunker in
Yorkshire, UK
is built into a
cliff-side and
would be be
transformed
into a
museum
celebrating
the role of
women during
war.
The bunker
would be dug
out in areas to
reveal its
three metre-
thick walls
and create a
series of
courtyards
open to the
air.
A glazed roof
over one
section would
have water
flowing over it
and down a
wall etched
with the
names of
pivotal
women from
past wars.
Part of the
bunker would
protrude out
of the cliff to
create a
viewing
platform over
the sea.
“Situated within a
unique cliff side location
in Bempton lies the RAF
Bempton bunker.
Disintegrating and of
great historical interest,
it is proposed the site
will be sensitively
renovated and reclaimed.
