Best Answer

They built little sheds made of metal in the ground and hid in those

They also in London went to the underground stations and stayed there, I would like to point out that they were not hiding, merely trying to stay alive. The sheds in the ground were called Anderson shelters. They also had indoor ones that were placed under the kitchen table. sometimes people also went into the cupboard under the stairs.
