Information - Brindle ROC post open days

[MK83]

The last time we posted about the Brindle ROC post restoration we said we would notify folks on here of the next time it's opening up for visitors.
It will be open on the 16th and 23rd of March.

We will have all the kit brought down and set up, BPI, GZI, FSM, Hand-cranked siren, Pump up mast etc. Brindle is just outside Chorley so if anyone is local to Lancashire and is interested feel free to come down. It's free but to help manage numbers we get people to book a slot, booking link;

Has it been restored now? We went last year and it was still a shell then at the open day. Would love to see it finished.

The photos above are pretty much were it's up to although we've just carpeted it as well since these pics. It's not far off finished really. There is still some painting to tidy up in the entrance shaft and some cement work to do on the above ground features but it is getting close to done. All of the equipment is fitted, all the wiring for lighting/radio done and working, mast fitted and pneumatic pipe work fitted to pump it up etc. A huge amount of work has been done in the last 12 months.

Most definitely, we went last year it's just up the road from my parents house where I grew up. Will certainly be coming to see you again then. Well done everyone involved!
