There were air raids by German Zeppelin craft on London, the Midlands and the east coast of England. Im not sure about the exact total figure but over 500 Londoners died in these air raids including either 18 or 46 schoolchildren in Poplar and 162 people who were killed when Liverpool Street Station suffered a direct hit. There were also war-related disasters such as the munitions explosion in Silvertown in which 72 factory workers were killed. So, whilst not on the scale of the WW2 Blitz, London was badly impacted by WW1.

----------------------------------------

About 110,000 British civilians died during World War I including deaths by direct attack or death by disease, famine, etc.
