During the Cold War era, the cloud of nuclear warfare hung over the heads of people worldwide. Just targeting the United Kingdom itself, there were 1200 nuclear bombs. This fear of nuclear warfare was deeply ingrained in every individual's heart under such circumstances.
Many civilians, before drifting off to sleep at night, fretted anxiously about whether they could wake up alive the next morning.
Thus, under this circumstance, the construction of various types of shelters became a prevailing practice. For example, countries were competing to build different kinds of public civil air defence projects and numerous private individuals were also building private works.
