the air raid shelters were never built close to the house because if the house was bombed then it might block the escape exit they built them normally at the end of the garden ..if you did come across some of the shelter while building ..it may cost a bit more to remove ..but to a good builder its not a problem

Either dig a few test holes, or drive a metal rod in the ground.

Just dig a big hole, a couple of meters from the house.
