The vaults were built in 1939 and have a fascinating history, as part of the pre-war Brooklands racing circuit, and then as a World War II air raid shelter. Now the UK’s largest surviving shelter, it was leased from the Ministry of Defence in 2009 and converted into Locke-King Vaults, to provide an environment perfect for fine wine storage.
The cool, dark underground tunnels at Locke-King Vaults offer the perfect conditions for storing fine wines. Cases are stowed in a series of concrete-lined tunnels, 2 metres high and 1 metre wide, sheltered from harmful vibrations and UV light. Temperature is a constant 10-12.5 degrees Celsius and humidity is controlled by Hydrostat at 70%.
