Under the quiet fields of Kent lies something hidden.Not myths. Not rumours. Structures. Facilities. Concrete chambers and sealed tunnels from the Cold War and beyond—some abandoned, some still humming with life.In this mind-bending episode of the Cherrywood Conspiracy Files, Simon and Rachel take you deep beneath the Garden of England to uncover a chilling possibility: that Kent’s Cold War bunkers were never really shut down… just reclassified.Whispers of locked rooms, electromagnetic anomalies, phantom wiring, sealed shafts, and mysterious signals suggest there’s more happening under our feet than we’re meant to know.Could secret bases still be operating? Are they military? Corporate?

You're driving home at midnight. Fog rolls in. Then you see her—white dress, no shoes, standing in the road. You slam the brakes. She vanishes.This is the story of Blue Bell Hill, one of the UK’s most chilling and persistent ghost sightings. A tragic crash in 1965. A bride who never made it to the altar. And reports—still to this day—of a woman in white appearing to drivers, asking for a lift, or simply vanishing from the back seat.This episode of the Cherrywood Conspiracy Files digs deep into the legend, from police reports and dashcam footage to theories of time slips, phantom hitchhikers, and something much darker…Welcome to your new favourite paranormal obsession.👻 Got a theory?

What if the Earth isn’t a museum of history… but a hard drive?A planet that deletes, recycles, and reboots itself again and again.Civilisations could have risen and fallen millions—even billions—of years ago, leaving no trace. Fossils are rare. Stone crumbles. Oceans swallow cities. Volcanoes melt monuments. And tectonic plates drag everything back into the mantle.In this epic Cherrywood Conspiracy Files deep dive, Simon Burridge presents his original theory: Earth, The Planet That Reboots. Across ten parts, we explore:The real age of Earth — and why science may only be measuring its “last surviving files.”Fossils as “deleted data” — and why deep time hides more than it reveals.Ancient stone monuments, pyramids, and buried cities as possible time capsules.UFOs and probes as relics of civilisations that may have risen before us.The catastrophic “delete keys” of Earth: asteroids, volcanoes, and ice ages.And the haunting possibility that we are not the first… just the latest version installed.Simon’s 35 years as a mechanical engineer, combined with a sharp eye for the absurd, fuel this investigation — with a touch of humour and plenty of mystery.📺 The Cherrywood Conspiracy Files now drop every Friday.🎙️ Regular Cherrywood Podcast episodes with guests will still appear as soon as they’re ready.👉 Could intelligence have risen long before humans? Could UFOs be reminders from past civilisations? And is Voyager really our only lasting monument?This is one of our biggest conspiracy explorations yet: Earth: The Planet That Reboots.#CherrywoodConspiracyFiles #EarthMysteries #AncientCivilisationsWelcome to Cherrywood Podcast, your source for inspiring conversations and compelling stories.

In this gripping episode of the Cherrywood Conspiracy Files, we explore one of Kent’s most overlooked UFO encounters: the mysterious events of December 12th, 1971 in the village of Shorne.A farmer’s tractor died. A couple’s car stalled. Dogs howled. Lights hovered. Phones went down. And RAF Manston denied everything. Was it weather? Venus? Or something not of here?Over 50 years later, we return to the fields, letters, and stories that refused to fade. Why does no one talk about Shorne when they talk about UFOs in Britain? And what really came over Kent that night?Join Simon and Rachel from the Cherrywood Podcast as they ask the questions no one else will.👇 Timestamps:0:00 – The lights above Shorne0:54 – Welcome to the Cherrywood Conspiracy Files1:09 – Life in sleepy 1970s Shorne1:26 – George Watkins’ tractor encounter3:07 – A couple’s terrifying drive4:19 – Pub flickers and barking dogs4:43 – Power outage and eerie glow5:45 – RAF denial and the Venus excuse5:58 – The mysterious anonymous letter6:30 – George’s notes: “Not of here”7:08 – Government silence7:23 – Could the lights still return?7:34 – Theories: Military?
