Keywords:
An illustrated tour of some of the most significant Cold War locations still in existence today, and what they tell us about Britain's Cold War history.

This book narrates Britain’s Cold War through its rich Cold War heritage. Taking a chronological approach, key events, technologies and social impacts are illustrated and explained through the many sites, collections and artefacts that are publicly accessible. Peter Robinson takes readers on a journey of discovery, from the secret bunker at Kelvedon Hatch to the Nuclear Missile Storage Facility at RAF Barnham, where local people believed monkeys were being prepared for space travel, and beyond. Civil and Military defense, the CND movement and the Cold War in popular culture are also considered, and a list of fifty Cold War sites that are open to the public is also included.

'As a way of prompting further research and encouraging visits to key sites, it will hopefully give this important sector of our cultural heritage a welcome boost.' -- Britain at War Magazine, March 2025 'In conclusion, Britains Cold War Heritage is more than just a historical overviewits a gateway to exploration. Whether youre a Cold War enthusiast, a student of history, or a curious traveler, this book offers a compelling and practical way to engage with Britains recent past. For our family, it turned a holiday into a journey through historyone radar screen, control console, and museum exhibit at a time. The RAF Radar Museum at Neatishead, in particular, stood out as a highlight, and its a visit we might not have made without the books guidance. Its a testament to the power of well-researched, accessible history to inspire real-world discovery.' -- Exposure Magazine, Spring 2025
