Large metal workshop; most of the outbuildings are wired for electricity and some appear to include other utilities as well.
This one's a keeper: an underground, ventilated bunker! There's even an emergency exit!
Just a few leaves to sweep up; concrete work seems very solid and the main room is clean, though too dark to photograph.
One of two ponds in the cross-fenced livestock area. At some point utilities were available in the barn/outbuildings. Rear of the bunker is disguised in the background. Can you see it?
