Emergency Planning Advice from 1960s

In the 1960s, the tensions between Russia and the west were at a very low point and described as a 'Cold War.' Being a nuclear power, it was felt that there was a strong possibility of an attack on the UK and consequently every parish council was issued with advice of what to do in the event of such an attack. This listing is a copy held by Ashbury Parish Council.
