The Anderson shelters were primarily built in backyards of homes across the United Kingdom during World War II. Designed as a response to the Blitz, these corrugated iron structures provided protection against aerial bombings. The government distributed them for free to households, particularly in urban areas, encouraging families to install them in gardens for safety.
