MOD Corsham: Prime Minister's Rooms and Operations Rooms is a Cold War underground complex located near the village of Corsham in Wiltshire. The site comprises a series of reinforced subterranean chambers constructed during the 1950s to provide secure accommodation and command facilities for the Prime Minister and senior government officials in the event of nuclear attack. The complex reflects the strategic thinking of the period and the British state's commitment to ensuring continuity of government during the Cold War. The underground rooms remain substantially intact as evidence of mid-twentieth-century civil defence architecture and planning.
