Statement of Significance
A domestic air raid shelter designed by the engineer David V Isaacs for the Sicree family in February 1941, when, following the bombing of Rotterdam and the fall of France in June 1940, precautions against air attack were being investigated in Victoria. The shelter is far more elaborate and costly than most subsequent local examples, and is of reinforced concrete with a barrel-vaulted ceiling, escape hatch in the toilet compartment, hand basin, three bunks, two folding benches, and food containers.
