Over to You

Available for over a year

A tour of Caversham Park before it closes - the home of ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Monitoring - a historical ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ World Service department which has been monitoring some of the world’s most seismic events for 75 years. Caversham Park became the ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ Monitoring Headquarters in 1941 and in light of recent news that, due to a £4million pound funding cut, it’ll be closing its doors for good, Rajan Datar visits the iconic building. Coordinating Editor, Chris Greenway gives a tour of the building and a sense of its history, while Lina Shaikouni gives a taste of what the service provides today.
