Fascinating buildings.
About 10 years ago I moved the IT for a firm of Solicitors in Maidstone and the building they bought was an ex-royal observer core admin building with a nuclear bunker in the garden. They were going to use it as a secure store for client's documents.
Amazing place to look around, and I can see that it would be the ideal place for a secure hosting location.

This is all a bit cheesey really, with the cloak and dagger nonsense. Why don't you tell people where this place is? I found out on line in 30 seconds. I see you claim it is a nuclear bunker: not strictly accurate, I thought it was an ex CHAIN or ROTOR site with a 1980's extension.
