EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the unique sight of a Bed Type Air Raid Shelter, a testament to the ingenuity and resilience of the British people during the tumultuous 1940s. The Second World War brought unprecedented challenges, and the threat of air raids loomed large over the civilian population. In response, innovative companies like Robert Morris Ltd. of Farnworth, near Bolton, devised creative solutions to provide shelter and comfort in the midst of chaos. This particular shelter, designed as a domestic refuge, showcases an intriguing blend of the ordinary and the extraordinary. The cozy interior is reminiscent of a bedroom, with a parquet floor, a carpet or rug, and a hint of an Art Deco wallpaper peeking through the cracks. A bed, complete with an eiderdown quilt and a pair of pillows, invites weary occupants to seek refuge from the outside world. The presence of curtains and windows adds a sense of familiarity and normalcy to this unusual space. The Bed Type Air Raid Shelter represents a poignant reminder of the extraordinary measures taken during wartime to create a sense of safety and comfort amidst the uncertainty and fear. This photograph offers a glimpse into the past, allowing us to appreciate the resourcefulness and determination of those who lived through the 1940s and the Second World War.
