The
first military use of the area was in World War II, when a Starfish
site was established at Hack Green. Its purpose was to confuse Luftwaffe
bombers looking for the vital railway junction at Crewe.
A Ground-controlled interception (GCI) radar station was added.
In
the 1950s, the site was modernised as part of the ROTOR project. This
included the provision of a substantial semi-sunk reinforced concrete
bunker or blockhouse (type R6).
The station, officially
designated RAF Hack Green, was also known as Mersey Radar. It provided
an air traffic control service to military aircraft crossing civil
airspace.
The site was abandoned and remained derelict for many
years, until the Home Office took it over. They rebuilt the R6 bunker as
a Regional Government Headquarters (RGHQs) - one of a network of 17
such sites throughout the UK - designed to enable government to continue
in the aftermath of a major nuclear attack on the UK.
In about
1992, following the end of the Cold War, the Home Office abandoned its
network of RGHQs and sold many of the sites. This one was bought by a
private company and subsequently opened to the public in 1998 as a
museum with a Cold War theme.
