This is Collyweston Explosives Storage Area (ESA for short) which lays in some woods virtually next door to the still active RAF Wittering.

The site was used to store bombs and rockets for the USAF and closed some time back. There are three main types of building here ranging from open storage sheds to full sealed and buried bunkers.

Some more info here on what was stored in each type of bunker.

Big huge thanks to mattdonut for this one and to WC for the superb pics of the place.
