WW2 Control Bunker entrance for Burrington Bomb Decoy.

I had never seen a good photo, only read about decoy towns, and largely forgotten them in the midst of all the other cover and deception for military sites and decoys such as inflatable "tanks" and such. Starfish site explains these sites for those never knowing or, like me, forgetting. More at Wartime Deception in Norfolk and Suffolk by Huby Fairhead. Thank you.

So, this was the entrance to the control room of this site?

There are one or two more of these buildings somewhere on the Mendips all connected with WW2 decoys. I will get them eventually!

Decoy towns were quite an interesting touch, though effectiveness seemed about nil. I suspect they were an idea before the RAF accepted Knickebein as being a fact and well before they started trying to "bend the beams." I enjoyed R. V. Jones' The Wizard War long ago with the account of that effort. Now I gather the "bending" was not as successful technically as the doubts and fears of German crews knowing their navigation beams were highlighting the night's target and route for interceptors.
