Starting life as a WW2 decoy station and later a Ground Controlled Intercept (GCI) radar site, the site at Hack Green was upgraded as part of the ROTOR programme in the late 1950's. Building a R6 type, two level concrete bunker for military command and control (C2) and serving as a joint military and civil air traffic control centre. This function ceased in around 1966 when the complex was mothballed but remained under Government ownership.
In 1976 the site was given a new lease of life when it was taken over by the Home Office, modernised once again and operated as a Regional Government Headquarters; coordinating the civil response in the event of nuclear attack. The cold war was coming to an end, and eventually in 1993 the site was decommissioned.
Now in private hands, the bunker has been a cold war museum since 1998 and boasts some very unique exhibits including what is reputedly the largest collection of decommissioned nuclear weapons in the world, and a rare Ballistic Missile Early Warning System (BMEWS) console from RAF High Wycombe.

In September 2015, Het Entrepot will place several young volunteers in a Bruges cellar where they will spend four days hacking into their home town’s DNA and thrashing out their dreams for Bruges. And all this under the watchful eyes of the outside world as cameras record the entire 4-day project.
They will brainstorm with each other but also have the help of various experts on the subject. Each day will close with an evening programme for the public. You are welcome to join in the debate on their ideas.

Mr. Hack has done some really nice work, and I had him draw me a Second Doctor, which he can be seen holding above. If I can swing it (since I keep seeing him at conventions), I'd eventually like to commission him to draw me all eleven doctors. He can be found at www.roberthackstudios.com
Cuando se tiene cierto contacto con la Internet, obras como esta resultan de lo más interesante, sobre todo cuando tanto se ha desvirtuado el concepto y concepción de los Hackers, hoy en dÃa asociados, equivocadamente, a los Crackers.
A female mulberry that we transplanted last May died on us. The tree
was not dormant when it was removed which was a silly thing to do. We
killed it and now we have to hack it up and burn it.
Hack Fall Wood, otherwise known as Hackfall, is a Site of Special Scientific Interest, or SSSI, of 44.8687 hectares (0.4487 km2; 0.1732 sq mi), lying north-east of the village of Grewelthorpe, North Yorkshire, England. During the 18th century it was landscaped in the picturesque style by landowner William Aislabie, who created views by engineering streams and pools, planting trees and building follies. Turner and Gilpin painted it, and pictures of it featured on Catherine the Great's 1773 Wedgwood dinner service. Some 19th century writers called it "one of the most beautiful woods in the country."
Following 20th century clear-felling and natural regeneration of trees, the Woodland Trust purchased the property in 1989. The site was designated as an SSSI in the same year. Together with the Hackfall Trust and the Landmark Trust, the Woodland Trust restored footpaths, conserved the remaining follies and managed the wildlife habitat according to its SSSI status.
The woodland supports varied wildlife, including many birds, animals and flowering plants, plus more than 200 species of liverworts and mosses, and two rare creatures: the beetle Platycis minutus and the lemon slug,[2] which lives only in ancient woodland. The site is now listed as a Conservation Area, and as Ancient Semi-Natural Woodland (ASNW). The woodland is open to the public and has many summer visitors, although the only public facility is a car park.
