To mark the 50th anniversary of the Cuban Missile Crisis, CBBC’s Newsround took a tour of the York Cold War Bunker.

Reporter Hayley Cutts toured the facility on Monument Close and talked to Kevin Booth, senior curator at English Heritage.

Fortunately the bunker was never used. This week, to mark the anniversary, the bunker is hosting a photography exhibition. More details on our MixSix here.
