Abstract:		 Ecus Ltd were commissioned by Hague Plant to undertake Historic Building Recording of an Air Raid Shelter at Thurlstone Primary School, Royd Moor Road, Barnsley, South Yorkshire (hereafter 'the site') located at National Grid Reference 423173, 403709. The Air Raid shelters are located within the grounds of Thurlstone Primary School, Royd Moor Road, Thurlstone, Barnsley. The building is located immediately to the west of the current primary school building, under the school playing field. The historic building recording was focused upon the eastern part of the air raid shelter (Tunnel B), with the western tunnel (Tunnel A) not recorded in detail as access was limited by rubble which had been used to partially infill the tunnels. Tunnel A is to remain buried and will not require excavation or demolition. The air raid shelter at Thurlstone Primary School is of a standardised prefabricated design, known as a Stanton Air Raid Shelter. Preparations for the building began in May 1939 and the shelter was completed in late 1939. Regular air raid precaution drills were undertaken and the shelter was used in response to alerts on a handful of occasions during school hours. The building is a good example of what was once a common form of building, and had received little alteration during its lifespan except for the loss of its primary stepped or laddered entrance, the timber benches and chemical toilets.
