Bombfire - what is it?

A large public fire, built on a derelict or abandoned lot in the neighbourhood. These lots are known as "bomb sites" or "bomies" as they were often, at one time, the result of a bomb strike during World War 2; after the war the name stuck for any empty lot. A bomfire is a fir purposely built on a bomb-site. Commonly done on November 5th, or Guy Fawkws Night.

Lets collect some wood for the bombfire.

What does "bombfire" mean?

Bombfire, is a variant of bonfire. Although both words mean a fire created for enjoyment, for example on Guy Fawkes night, the etymology is different.
A bombfire got its name from being created on an open vacant lot by the community. These lots were called a bombie, or bomb site. As a hold over from World War 2, when I'm the UK many building were destroyed from bomb attack

It took several decades for all of these lots to be built on again. Empty lots continued to be called bomb sites, and fires on these sites, called bomb fired.

Let's collect wood to build a bombfire.
