Air Raid Precaution Centre [full inscription unknown]

Clapton’s WW2 ARP Control Centre was set back from Rossendale Road, concealed by three converted civil defence garages. All above ground traces, including the wall to which this plaque was affixed, were cleared to make way for a modern housing development c2010. It is believed that the Grade II shelter was incorporated into the new structure but the plaque was not reerected.
