Concrete Cairns: Bunker Museums and Cold War Memory on Britain’s Peripheries
Resource type

Creator (person)
Gledhill, Jim
Abstract
This paper will examine two Cold War bunkers in Scotland that have been converted into museums. Both buildings’ ‘cold’ lives and afterlives are integral to the curated stories within and the museums’ multiple meanings contested by communities previously kept out by barbed wire fences.
