English: During WW2, Anderson shelters were issued free to all householders who earned less than £250 a year, and those with a higher income were charged £7. They were constructed using six curved corrugated iron sheets which were bolted together at the top and a steel plate at each end, and half buried in the ground with earth heaped on top. The corrugated iron roofs of most of the shelters were collected by the authorities at the end of the war but other obsolete shelters were sold to the householders for £1 each.
