In a forest.... no sorry I don’t know where it is.

Re: MYSTERY OBJECTS
I reckon you're close enough Cathy, it's a one person air raid shelter, the one in the pic is in Germany. They were featured in an 'Abandoned Engineering' programme that was on the other day and were used for remote outposts as it was more practical that digging a hole in the ground. Must have been terrifying to be inside in the middle of an air raid.

Both suggestions sound plausible, and I wonder what the arched structure is on the ground left hand side.

Re: MYSTERY OBJECTS
Kev has it, it's an abandoned German artillery observation post on the Western Front in WW1. The tree is one that was hit by a British shell and converted by the Germans.
Next one?

Re: MYSTERY OBJECTS
Bugger! You're right of course. As punishment, come up with an object!

Re: MYSTERY OBJECTS
You're on the right track Gloria, It's industrial but not that. There's a more direct linkage.

Re: MYSTERY OBJECTS

Re: MYSTERY OBJECTS
Sorry Kev no. You're right, they are fetching ridiculous prices. Think of a very common manufacturer who was to be found domestically as well.
