The Morrison shelter was an internal domestic air raid shelter. It consisted of a steel frame covered in a steel mesh. One side of the shelter could be lifted to allow a family to shelter inside it during an air raid. Measuring approximately 6ft 6ins long by 4ft wide and about 2ft 6ins high they were named after Herbert Morrison the minister of Home Security and were introduced in 1941 to overcome the reluctance people had for using the Anderson Garden shelters which were cold, dark and prone to flooding. Morrison shelters had just enough space inside for three people to sleep and quickly became known as Table Shelters because they were the right dimensions to double up as a table if a tablcloth was thrown over them. Because they were used inside the home (unlike Anderson Shelters) the Morrison shelter carried with it the additional risk of being trapped inside it within a burning or collapsing building.
