Where did people go during air raids in Great Britain during WW2?
If they could, they would go to air raid shelters. If they were at home when the air raid sirens sounded, they may have had a concrete shelter in their back garden, or they may have had an Anderson shelter which was made of corrugated iron and partly buried in their back garden. If they had no outside space, they might have had a Morrison shelter (a self assembled steel cage) somewhere in their home. If people weren't at home, there were various public shelters available, sometimes in underground stations or in the crypt of a church. At one period during the war, people slept in underground (tube) stations every night.
What were World War 2 air raid shelters made out of?
There were various types of shelter constructed. The most popular was the Anderson shelter which consisted of curved sections of corrugated tin bolted together and half buried. The top was covered with a thick layer of earth. They were very strong but couldn't stand a direct hit. Larger shelters were often constructed from concrete and brick though deep shelters used at military sites along the south coast were dug from the chalk cliffs and then lined with corrugated tin. Another type of shelter (IIRC the Morrison shelter) was a steel table that you could shelter underneath indoors that would protect against falling debris.
