D587849 Down Street - PBX Telephone Switchboard

Disused underground station in Westminster that closed in 1932 but which at the start of the Second World War was converted into a bunker and operations centre. As such it was used by Winston Churchill until the Cabinet War Rooms were completed and throughout the conflict it was also a base for the Railway Executive Committee and the military.
