4a Using the example
given, from a London Borough, make a list of the different types of public
shelters.
4b The biggest shelter in Camberwell had places for 860 people in daytime, and 450 at night. Where was this shelter? What type of shelter was it? 4c Do you think that a concrete public shelter would have been safer than a private one? 4d Look at the Photograph in source 4b which shows a hit on a public shelter. Does this make you rethink your answer to 4c? 4e What sort of shelter would you choose to be in during a bombing raid? |
