Inside the Cold War bunker that could be yours for £20,000

• A unique Cold War-era nuclear bunker, designed to withstand a blast, is set for auction with a starting bid of just £20,000.
• Located discreetly amidst blackberry brambles in Hallen, overlooking the River Severn estuary near Bristol, the subterranean dwelling offers no external view.
• This bunker is one of approximately 1,500 shelters built across the UK for the Royal Observer Corps to monitor nuclear attacks, decommissioned and sold to the public in the 1990s.
• The spartan 128 square foot "Room One" features peeling paint, basic furnishings, and a crude chemical toilet, marketed as ideal for a wine cellar or secure utility area.
• A similar bunker in Yorkshire Dales National Park sold for £48,000 last year, with buyers planning to convert it into a tourist attraction.
