Is there an air raid shelter in your garden? Then why not take a selfie

HAVE you got an old air raid shelter hidden away somewhere in your garden? A rusty old Anderson shelter made of corrugated iron - or an overgrown brick shelter that you now use as a garden shed. There are more of them about than you might think. And the people of York have been busy taking selfies of them for a project to record the long-lasting impact of the wartime air-raids on York. The Raids Over York project started on 11 August 2020 - the 80th anniversary of the first raid on the city, which saw York Cemetery and the Fishergate area hit by high explosive bombs.
