Chris.
If you walk down the passage the room on the right housed two diesel generators.
The room on the left was accomodation, when I first went in the generators had been removed, the other room still had bunk beds a table and some chairs.
The only civilians allowed any where near were the farmers, even we as children out collecting whimberries were turned away by the sentries. What little we could see was camoflaged.
After the last air raids on Manchester, the generators were removed and what ever had been camoflaged had also gone.
