Talk about a time capsule. And there must be many more waiting to be found. "Edinburgh woman stunned after discovering an untouched WWII air raid shelter in her tenement building. Mia Gray, 33, unearthed the forgotten piece of history that had been sitting full of junk for years, with her and other neighbours initially believing it was an old store cupboard. In December 2016, Mia moved into the property in Inverleith along with her husband and young sons, but never gave the cupboard a second look until years later. Speaking to Edinburgh Live, the mum-of-two explained that it was only when a new neighbour, Liz Mowbray moved into the building and asked her about the space did she think to properly check it out. After organising a clear out with Liz, the real purpose of the room was finally discovered. "When all the rubbish was gone it became obvious it had been used as an air raid shelter." A much larger space than expected, the room still contained a host of items that would have been used during air raids in the war for all the residents in the building." www.edinburghlive.co.uk/news/edinburgh-news/edinburgh-woman-discovers-untouched-wwii-20284610?fbclid=IwAR3MUj8tFEKYWrLRvD3YK0Y9ukwh-Q9XJcaTKfqKYlqAMtBTgiXd1EmyEhI
