The Battle of the Atlantic Experience
Just heard of this, just wondering if any one has paid a visit,
I will try and take a look next time in Liverpool.
Western Approaches Museum - The Battle of the Atlantic Experience.
Western Approaches
1-3 Rumford Street, Exchange Flags, Liverpool, Merseyside L2 8SZ
LINK
Described as: The original underground command centre for the Navy, Air Force and Marines tracking Atlantic enemy submarine and convoy shipping during World War II. The building is encompasses 30,000 square feet of rooms and corridors, including the iconic Operations Room - a huge 20ft high map of the Atlantic ocean, where the movement of allied and enemy ships were plotted throughout the war. Now reopened as a visitor centre, you can spend hours exploring, learning and discovering more about Liverpool during the war, and the stories of the women and men that worked at Western Approaches during the war.
