Report - Dodge hill air raid shelter - 08/2011

[paulpowers]

I was going to head down Tin Brook but the sky was threatening to rain and I didn't fancy getting wet so I headed down the air raid shelter on dodge hill.

This network of tunnels, was hewn out of the red sandstone hills on which Stockport stands, to provide air raid shelters for 6,500 during the Second World War. The shelters were fitted with basic amenities: electric lights, benches and bunk beds, first aid post and sick bay

I headed down after scaring a couple of kids outside as I jumped over the fence.
There was also that un-nerving moment where I was taking pictures and a torch light came from the back of the shelter, turns out it was urban krackhead and a none member

anyway on with the pics

And finally a little light play

Thanks for looking
