Full description

Air raid shelter in centre of back garden. About 3.5m long by 2.5m across; of brick, with thick concrete slab roof now 600mm above ground level. Window in this small elevation at west end. Entrance was by stairs descending across east end. These have been altered in breezeblocks, and post war furniture suggests shelter was in use in more recent times before being overgrown and lost.
E. Rose (NLA), 26 March 2005.
