NHER 43507 (Monument record) - Site of World War Two air raid shelters at 83, 86, 89 and 90 Harley Road

April 2006. Norfolk NMP.
Four World War Two air raid shelters are visible as earth and vegetation covered structures on aerial photographs (S1), between TG 5255 0891 and TG 5255 0889. They lay in the front gardens of 83, 86, 89 and 90 Harley Road. This location, together with their small size, suggests that they were private shelters, each intended for the use of these particular households. Most of the structures appear to have had a curved or parabolic profile. They may have been Anderson shelters or similar proprietary designs. The form of the shelter at Number 86 is less clear. Further shelters may have existed in other front gardens along this terrace, but nothing else was clear enough on the consulted aerial photographs to warrant mapping. Recent aerial photographs of the area, e.g. (S2), demonstrate that the shelters have almost certainly now been levelled.
