Full Description
May 2010. Norfolk NMP.
Industrial air raid shelters of World War Two date are visible as surviving/part demolished earthworks and structures on aerial photographs (S1)-(S4), centred at TG 2115 0702. They lie within a group of factory buildings or glasshouses (the area is marked ‘Nursery’ on the Ordnance Survey 1919-29 6 inch map (S5)), most often adjacent to the buildings. The individual shelters have not been mapped by NMP, although their approximate extent (more or less contiguous with the factory/nursery site itself) is depicted.
