Haha – though it’s signposted that way because it’s out of commission now and it’s been turned into a tourist attraction. Sorry to be a spoilsport. To be honest though, anyone driving to Chelmsford ought to have a FAIL sticker attached somewhere on their windscreen.
I’ve been to that “Secret Bunker” – it’s pretty cool actually. Gigantic “nuclear-proof” doors, 3 or 4 stories underground, ancient PCs (I think it was in use until the 80’s) – a real Cold-War feel to the place. Worth a visit for anyone living in Essex (FAIL!) Ok, I live in Essex
I’ve been there too – a fascinating relic of the Cold War with the twist that the Government could snatch it back at any time. In order to turn it into a tourist attraction, a second exit had to be made through the upper level which somewhat weakens its original purpose of being able to survive an atomic bomb detontation as near as half a mile away.
By the time I passed the sign it was plastered with graffiti so I didn’t bother taking my own picture.
i live down the road next to the bunker, and i keep my horse in the field at the entrance to the back entrance of the bunker, i went there once it was sooooooooooooooo boring
Im in chelmsford right now and i’ll be the one laughing when the sirens go off.
i live in brentwood, ill be laughing even harder
And I live in the bunker, so who’s laughing?
and i am the bunker, so who’s laughing now?muhahahahah
Then you must be fat
and a real stoner.. get it.. cause the bunker is made of stone… DAmn you alL! that was a phat joke!
hahah. i liked it
You must have played around lead paint as a child huh?
well I’m the nuclear waste that blows you bitches up, so suck it!
if it was George Bush then it would have been nucular…
I think you will stop laughing when we are all coming along.
amaingly, it’s a real sign – i’ve seen it with my own eyes.
AMAZINGLY, there are people who leave out the ‘z’ in “amazingly”.
Amazingly, there are people who are not a rapist
Obviously you are not one of these people.
Amazingly, I didn’t even notice!
AMAZING!

Or maybe its pointing the wrong way so anyone looking for a secret bunker will go the wrong way
BLUFF !
That’s brilliant – you’re a regular Jeremy Clarkson.
jeremy clarkson v2! FTW
True chris, threre is another up here in sunny scotland, in Fife. U should also have your FAIL sticker ready if your going to Fife.
Lol i live in chelmsford and ive seen it too…
I’ve passed through here before and seen this sign.
Don’t forget, once it was secret, now it’s not. We should all be looking for the ones that are still secret so we all have somewhere to hide.
I’ve seen a pretty similar sign in Central Ohio-not sure if it’s for a tourist attraction though.
i don’t get why you’d be going to chelmsford when you see this,
you’d be coming from the Romford or Brentwood roads into Ongar when you see this sign in the Marden Ash end of Ongar,
meaning that your a complete fail for taking the back road when you have the A12
yes I’m being an arse but this sign is located at the end of my old road, i walked past it everyday. get it right or fail
SHOOP DA WHOOP
That MUST BE PPSed!
reading the other comments fail
Lol its not photoshoped you n00b !
Theres quite a few of these and ive been to one and seen the signs
Looks like something the Bush Admin. Could see and fail to find the place anyway.
lol bush fails at everything, bush is just one giant fail
That’s the only thing I’ve ever heard about Bush, and yet we elected him twice. Democracy fail?
i live in kelvedon hatch.
THAT is a fail
What makes this a fail is that there is actually a place called Chipping Ongar. I mean, what the hell? It sounds like a severe dental impaction.
Shhhh, it’s a secret.

I LOIVE RIGHTT NEAR THIS!
ok fail at myself for the typo, but im sitting in the dark so what can i say?! lol
For those not living in the UK, on road signs White writing on a Brown background denotes a Tourist Attraction.
It’s a Brown sign, so a Tourist Attraction, not some military base.
*Sigh* Obviously, you’re not supposed to read the sign!
Chelmsford = Fail
repeat. this one is on here twice.
Lol yeah, I’ve been to that bunker.
Smells funny
maybe it WAS secret, but NOW isn’t?
Well, it certainly isn’t a secret anymore….
lol, this was on top gear, and james may pointed out, it could actually be the other way..
haha i’ve actually been to the bunker! me n mates got lost and ended up at a “Secret Nuclear Bunker”… :S
lmao
i live down the road next to the bunker, and i keep my horse in the field at the entrance to the back entrance of the bunker, i went there once it was sooooooooooooooo boring
was this in a james bond film?
that’s like my little cousin saying ” okay, im going to hide this candy so, NO ONE LOOK UNDER THE PILLOW! “
