Nice to see it undamaged. There are air raid shelters of this pattern at the former RAF Twinwood, Bedfordshire which are now preserved.
Cheers, Ade.

Re: Was in the woods today, what a big surprise!!!
Thanks for your replies, its good to hear that similar shelters are being preserved in Bedfordshire. This shelter as I said before is well off the beaten track and that has kept it safe and preserved all these years and I can't see that changing, unless of course its position is revealed. I realise we're all on this forum because of our enthusiasm in the preservation of history from the World Wars, so you'll understand why I'd prefer not to reveal the location for its sake.

Hi Packin9,
I'm sorry I didn't notice you were in the US, Adrian is right it's actually in Southern England and the nearest Airfield started the war as RAF being later transferred to the US Airforce. Both fighter and transport squadrons flew from there.
All the Best.
