Clifford Road Air Raid Shelter Museum

Former Air raid Shelter from World War 2 converted into a museum.

Reviewed By 1972march - Ipswich, United Kingdom

I accidentally stumbled across this on Google Maps, otherwise, I'd never have found this priceless gem! I had no idea there was an air raid shelter in Ipswich that was open to the public - it was only re-opened in 1989 apparently, and has been converted into a museum containing many artefacts from WW2. Run by volunteers, some in period costume, this wonderful place is well worth a visit. Opening times are limited and it's best to check their website. Perfect for all ages, and don't forget to check out the train!!
