Abstract:
In April 2007, ASC carried out a survey of four disused underground air raid shelters at Bowers Parade, Leyton Green (2) and Queens Road, Harpenden, Herts, in order to prepare accurate plans, to establish their precise locations, and to determine their condition. The survey results will assist in determining the long-term future of the shelters. All the shelters are trench built, and were constructed just before the start of World War II, using the cut and cover method, with reinforced concrete wall and roof sections. All are in good condition: only the Bowers Parade shelter exhibits any structural damage. Some discrepancies between the survey results and the available historical information were noted.
