37-year-old Simon Marks discovered something rather peculiar. He’s been in the same house for a while, <\/p>\n

but it wasn’t until recently that he discovered he didn’t know everything about the house he bought many years ago.<\/p>\n

He was trying to park his car one day when he came across what he believed was a flowerbed. The wheels <\/p>\n

of his car were stuck, and he could hear strange crackling sounds coming from the driveway.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Well, he reasoned, \u2018This day couldn’t get any worse.\u2019 The driveway stones were cracked, and the driver started to give way, <\/p>\n

Marks found when he crouched down to look closer. Paver breaks made a remarkable finding possible.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

After removing all of it, he found a piece of metal beneath the earth. Unaware of what might be hiding beneath the driveway, <\/p>\n

Marks grabbed the metal piece and tried to pull it out. He continued to look around to learn more about the strange creature.<\/p>\n

He asked his father for help because he didn’t know what to do, and the two of them were able to remove a substantial <\/p>\n

portion of the densely packed muck, which eventually created an entrance. The two men down an old, rusted ladder there to see where it would lead them.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

When my father saw it, he recognized it as an air raid bunker, Marks recalled. There are a lot in this area, we learned when we searched for it online.<\/p>\n

They found a bunker in Marks’ yard that appeared to have been built during World War II.<\/p>\n

\u2018The previous owner had to be aware of it, and he had to fill it in when he built the house and a garden,\u2019 Marks continued.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

These shelters were constructed to shield inhabitants from bombardment during the conflict. It is thought that Sir John Anderson created them.<\/p>\n

The exterior of one wall is bricked up. We don’t know, but I’m 90% positive we won’t learn about any further rooms. <\/p>\n

Marks surmised that one of the walls may have been bricked up during construction to create room for the foundations. <\/p>\n

We’ll just have to abandon it if that’s the case, he continued. His story quickly gained popularity as he shared pictures of his find.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

The shelter is something Marks and his father want to restore since they think it’s an important historical site. <\/p>\n

They contend that although though that time period in history is long past, it shouldn’t be forgotten because it provides us with a glimpse of what life was like at the time.<\/p>\n

Take a tour of the shelter in the video down below.<\/p>\n
