Plans are underway to unearth the history of an overgrown air raid shelter in Nottinghamshire. Hidden by weeds and shrubbery, the wartime concrete shelter is located in Lady Bay, at the junction Rutland Road and Lady Bay Road.
Anyone with memories or old photographs is urged to come forward as part of an academic and community project to bring the forgotten landmark back to life and to help children learn about its past. Professor Chris Reynolds, of Nottingham Trent University, is working with Rushcliffe Borough Council to enhance the site of the disused shelter.
He said: "This air raid shelter is unknown to many people as it’s barely viewable from the street and has long been overgrown with weeds and shrubbery. But I am convinced that, like many air raid shelters, it holds a fascinating history that will be amazing to uncover with the help of the local community.
