The only air raid shelters I can think of are buried opposite the childrens play area,
when I was kid I remember seeing the concrete supports buried there.I imagine they#
were there to protect the people playing bowls,and any kids playing on the play grounds.There was also a barrage ballon installation in the field at the top of Peel Park
Avenue,were the new houses have been built.
