Description: | Air-raid spotters have climbed out of a two-man bell shelter on Hungerford Bridge. This shelter was used during the Second World War to take cover from air raids for a short period. The men's steel helmets are marked 'London Transport'. Charing Cross mainline station is in the background.
These air-raid spotters would have been able to see up and down the river, so detect enemy planes from a distance. | Format: | image/jpeg | Publisher: | London Transport Museum | Rights holder: | Transport for London | Subjects: | Transport London at War Cityscape | Temporal: | 24 Apr 1941 | Source: | London Transport Museum | Identifier: | http://www.20thcenturylondon.org.uk/rser... | Language: | en-GB | Format: | image/jpeg | Go to resource |
