This building, which was probably an air-raid shelter, stands about 320m NNW of Rose Cottage and 230m NW of the control bunker ND 34SW 311.01. It measures 6.5m from E to W by 3m overall and is divided into two compartments, the more western of which is rectangular on plan and formerly had an arched corrugated iron sheet roof. This contrasts with its neighbour, which is more irregular on plan, with a pitched roof sloping down from N to S.
