With the sun out and the temperatures soaring, summer is the time when people lucky enough to have one turn their attention to their garden. And maybe part of that is thinking about adding an interesting feature - a talking point for visitors and something that sets the garden apart from the neighbours.
A fountain maybe, or a sociable bar and outside kitchen area, or even a swimming pool if you have the space and the build budget. But fewer homes can now offer a glimpse to the past when the feature at this 1930s home for sale was a frightening and necessary addition to the garden landscape.
Many homes within more populated areas of Wales had a submerged, below ground, air raid sheltered built in their garden during World War II to offer an alternative to the inside of the home if German bombers arrived in the sky above. Many in Cardiff and Swansea were used by families and neighbours in the middle of the night when the sirens sounded, who in any instances packed the small concrete encased shelter.
