I really don't know as never noticed them before, every house on this road had one. I couldn't see anyone to ask, a lot of women were staring at me through their windows but I didn't like to shout and ask.

No they are remote from the houses, some look like they are part of the house

Air raid shelter

Highway Man · 2026-01-28T20:55:40+0000

Possibly cow sheds or animal shelters?

I thought that but not strong enough, plus the houses were built in the 1800s

I don't know the answer myself, I know that sounds ridiculous and cannot be true, but it is.

I guess air raid shelters were added when needed?

doubt it, they look the same bricks as the houses so they were part of the building, I think sheep or pigs may have been kept as there wasn't supermarkets back then.

Rumour has it the Gerries didn't bomb any of the poor Northern terraced streets as they already appeared bomb damaged.
