The Stockport Air Raid Shelters were opened in October 1939, shortly after the outbreak of World War Two, and during the Manchester Blitz, which began on December 22nd 1940 until May 1941, provided night-time shelter for up to 7000 people. Accordionists were amongst the entertainers who performed in there to keep spirits up.
