So came across this place by chance. was just walking in the woods as you do and saw this fenced off area so feel i had to explore... my first impression was that it must be some sort of bunker but it really is too big for a bunker in pock i think.
so the next day i got my mate twig and we set off for further investigation.
if you goto google maps and type '53.945819,-0.757606' thats the location of this place.
looking around we find two metal sheets on top covering what could be hatches? and down the side a hole into a tunnel. as we had no tools we though the hole should be where we start.
one of the hatch covers?

rounded bolts are tough, did this much with my multi-tool plyers.
