Visited with Reef,
The shelter consists of tunnels cut deep into the hill alongside the A23 in Coulsdon, built during WW2.
After the war the tunnels were used by an optics manufacturing firm and then as a garage.
A sealed entrance
car parts
huge rear axle (looks like a tractor judging by the wheels, how on earth did they get it in there??)
There were quite a few Aircooled VW engines
NSU moped frames
Thanks to Reef for guiding the way, and for pointing out the site that used to be Cane Hill, which I never got to see
