Thank you to all who joined us for the second special edition of the 83rd Anniversary Blitz Walks. Paddy Mullen kindly read two specially written poems for the evening. Luckily weather was on our side and we were blessed with clear moonlit skies.

Tonight's 83rd Anniversary Walk was the first of seven Blitz edition Walks. Huge thank you to all who attended thisevening, all bar 3 the first time with us. Thank you to the gent who shared his story of his Grandad who survived the bombing raids living then at 11 The Crescent which witnessed loss of life after the bombing of the Westminster Hotel.

Missed Education

Uncovered by Contractors in 2011, on the site of Plymouth University. One of the better preserved shelters that could have become an educational resource with the then Plymouth Museum directly across the road. A lack of vision to incorporate this into the new building now sited above means this is now buried and sealed for future generations. Thankfully it wasn't fully demolished.

Maritime HQ Plymouth Underground Extension - Utilised for the Command of the Western Approaches, The Atlantic Convoys and most recently in 1982 for The Falklands War.

Caverns of Refuge 2010

Deep below the Subterranean of West Hoe, time capsules remain awaiting the curious history buff.

Throughout the rest of March we will be featuring images documenting The Plymouth Blitz Legacy. Bomb scars, long forgotten underground air raid shelters, artefacts, graffiti and more.
