UNTOUCHED Underground Bomb Store Explore Chilmark 2019

RAF Chilmark

In 1936 the quarries, and land extending further down the ravine, were bought by the Air Ministry and the site became RAF Chilmark, which was the home of No. 11 Maintenance Unit RAF.[5] Munitions were stored in the quarry caverns, and for a time the unit had extensive above-ground storage areas in woodland near Dinton and in Grovely Wood.

A spur left the London-Exeter railway west of Dinton station at Ham Cross, just east of the bridge over the Chicksgrove-Fovant road, and entered the foot of the ravine; this spur was omitted from Ordnance Survey maps.[10][11] Goods were transhipped under cover of a large shed, to/from a 2 ft gauge narrow-gauge railway which ran into the ravine and some of the former quarry caverns.[12] Until c.1951, sidings at Wylye station on the Salisbury–Westbury line provided transport for the Grovely Wood area.[13]

By 1965, Chilmark was the RAF's only ammunition supply depot.[14] RAF Chilmark closed in 1995, although clearance of explosives from the site continued until at least 1997.[15] A 1939 diesel locomotive used at the site was bought in 1976 by the Bala Lake Railway, North Wales;[16] several wagons are at the Old Kiln Light Railway, Surrey.

This was used as a cold war bomb store.
