Clapham North DEEP LEVEL SHELTER bunker 360FLATTENED
Description
This is experimental to show you what a 360 camera looks like in its raw form. Its really odd how things move in and out of frame. The real 360 one will be uploaded soon.
13 of the distinctive structures lurk close to tube stations. They are relics of the Second World War.
During the early 1940s, eight deep-level shelters were built to protect the population from bombing (seven along the Northern line and one at Chancery lane). Each had two entrances, mostly like the one above.
The shelters could accommodate up to 8,000 people in a pair of parallel tunnels deep beneath the street. Unfortunately, they were not completed until after the main Blitz, so only saw limited use.
The shelters were cleverly designed so that, after the war, they might be linked together to form an express tube line (a plan that had already been mooted before hostilities began). Alas, more pressing needs meant that the money never materialised.
The shelters were never demolished. Most became secure document storage space, but a few have found more imaginative roles.
