Question - Does anybody recognise this type of bunker and have any information regarding what it might be?

I know the photos are terrible so I’ve included a little sketch.

This is located in the forestry by the side of a dirt track leading up to a house up the mountains. The only thing relatively near is and old Service Reservoir building although I dont think they are related.

Has anyone come across a building that looks like my sketch? From the floor to the highest point is only around 5 feet high and there are two ventilation pipes coming out the top so I’m positive it’s an underground bunker of some sort.

no internal pics ?

Feels more like animal housing to me. Not really strong enough to be a bunker imho but I'm no expert.

Any Anti Aircraft gunpits nearby??

No nothing, its in between a triangle of two farms and a water service reservoir shack.

That would make sense considering there are farms relatively nearby, although this is in the middle of a thick forest? Also from what I can see there are no windows at all, just two small steel doors on the front.

It looks like a pig shed and the trees may have grown since.
I hope it's somthing more though.
Was there anything inside?

Hmmm. Doesn't look really shelter type. No mines or anything near by? Could of been office or sleeping area. But why the steal doors?! Interesting

It's been a number of years now, however, I'm certain I've come across something like this before and it was a reservoir.

What do you mean? You think there could be water stored ungerground in the bunker?

Yes, a reservoir for water. From what I can see in the photos it appears very similar to what I saw years ago.

Probably something to do with the old reservior in regards to pressure and flow.
