Un-Blast from the Past – Sealed Bomb Shelters Found

As children, many of us dreamed of finding long lost treasure, hidden paths & secret rooms. A look into something from the past, frozen in time, giving us a special glimpse into another time. Over the years, it seems that is exactly what has happened for a lucky few, who discovered retro bomb shelters in their own back yard. Some are in less than glorious shape, while others look as if they were put together just yesterday.
