Found in a modified air-raid shelter on Weston-super-Mare airfield. I'd like to know what the plant was used for to complete the survey Paul and I did recently. I guess it's post WWII.

The second image in Post #1 has a pulley implying that it is a blower unit? Or is a flange coupling for a missing pipe?The lintel in the end wall covers an aperture which has been bricked up.
