    Lead or Rumour info - Air raid shelter? Ealing Common, West London.

    I know theres an air raid shelter in the area, and could this be it? Does anyone think that the manholes could be an enterance or just random manhole covers? Thanks.

    Report - Littlewoods Air Raid Shelter, Liverpool - Febuary 2025

    Visited with @georgebrwn Wanted to check this place out for a while but it just slipped under my radar for some reason. My dad worked at Littlewoods for years so I was intrigued to see the inside. It's sad to see the current state of the main building. Good little explore, much bigger than I...

    Report - Littlewoods Air Raid Shelter, Liverpool - December 2024

    December 2024 Visited with @Mr Budge to finally explore a place I had wanted to see for a long time: the Littlewoods' Air Raid Shelter.

    Lead or Rumour info - Mini air raid shelter

    Back in the day, schools often had their own air raid shelters. A little bunker in a hillside such as this one Ha'penny Shelter In Heyrod, Stalybridge, such a shelter was built behind the then school, now village hall. I can confirm its existence, having hesitated at the threshold with a match...

    Report - Coulsdon Deep Shelter, Coulsdon. May 2024

    Howdy folks, its good to be back!! After a few years of self-exile, I'm officially out and about. So, I thought rather than report on one of the many local locations in my neck of the woods, why not visit a site out of town. Knowing I would soon be travelling to the Surrey area, this awarded me...

    is this a former air raid shelter, or sewage related?

    Hello all, As title says, I have one mate who reckons was an old air raid shelter or bunker, and I see what he is getting at, as there seems to be some brick work missing, but why the manhole and step irons? It is also near a particularly pungent CSO on a brook, and there is a manhole with the...

    Bit late on posting this, but I've been going through photos from nights out with Suboffender back in the day and wanted to post it up as a tribute to him. The history is pretty well known about these shelters; during WW2 the Home Office decided to build 10 deep level shelters for people to...

    Report - Bomb shelter at Woodhouse Ridge, Leeds - Dec 2023

    First report, bear with. There's not too much to say about this site. Just a small example of countless WW2 air raid shelters scattered across the country, most being demolished / locked up / buried. The shelter was likely built in '39/40, buried under an artificial mound that stands by...
