Where is this?

Drop in and dribble on about nothing serious. Seriously a mad place to hang out. Better to avoid it if you're not in the mood!!! If you're determined to be sad, bad, mad & angry then move along!!!

How are we doing now?
Really warm now!
For troops, but not for sleeping, or wind protection.
Spot-on about a disused training facility.
Now WHERE are they, and WHAT were they used for?
Think.
Outdoors, about 6ft long, 2ft wide and 1ft~18" deep, lined with bitumen.
:? Why the lining?

Right state, wrong town...

The Info Sign tells you what it is, but fortunately for me, doesn't say where it is. :twisted:
Keep guessing, everyone! :D
