The British Broadcasting Corporation (BBC) occupies many properties in the United Kingdom, and occupied many others in previous years. The headquarters of the corporation is Broadcasting House in London; with many other divisions located in London and around the UK. Since 2007 the BBC has been developing a significant base at MediaCityUK in Salford, to which it has relocated several departments. There are also production bases in Belfast, Birmingham, Bristol, Cardiff and Glasgow. The BBC also owns news bureaux and relay stations outside the UK.

Abroad

In addition to the domestic bases, the BBC has numerous bases overseas to monitor the global news organisations and to gather news stories. The BBC itself does not publish the exact location of each of their news bureau in case of attack or harassment of staff because of their employment by the broadcaster, which aims to be politically neutral.
