The Brighton Road Shelter, Cousldon has long been the subject of rumour and intrigue with all sorts of gossip and tales being whispered about the tunnels. It was: a Second World War bomb shelter, a nuclear bomb shelter, a mortuary for the nearby Cane Hill Mental Hospital, or a dark dungeon where ghastly experiments were carried out using the weird medical equipment still stored there.
Additionally it was: an optical factory or a mechanics. The Canadian Military used it for storage. And there are all sorts of artefacts in there – railway semaphores, telephone boxes, car engines and rusted machinery.
Even the location of the tunnels was open to conjecture, being situated anywhere within the Cane Hill site. It didn’t help that the hospital itself has its own service tunnels which only served to confuse the issue.
However, most rumours are based on a small foundation of truth. And after a little research, and a visit, most of these tall tales are found to be true in part
Good work mate
