Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Bomb shelter, Swindon Still looking in remarkably good condition given its original purpose as a WWII bomb shelter. The owner said it was to be shared by the occupiers of this and two other neighbouring houses. I had thought this to be an Anderson shelter but there seems to be some doubt as those were made from corrugated iron. It now seems more likely to be a Stanton shelter, which were more often used on airfields. See http://www.users.globalnet.co.uk/~rwbarnes/defence/silloth.htm found by Alan Fryer. Image taken with the permission of the householder. 4 figure grid reference only to maintain privacy.
