Seven years ago during a bad raid its fuse had jammed as it tore through Mrs. Alfred Fry's kitchen, then buried itself 30 feet in the Stepney ground. At that time air-raid wardens laid the damage to an antiaircraft shell. Recently Mrs. Fry noticed that the ground around her repaired kitchen had been sinking.
