Prior to 1955, a large tree was located in close proximity to where this rusted skip bin lies.

If it’s never been moved since WW2 or the years that followed, the skip bin was certainly well sheltered from the tree and hidden from 1955 aerial imagery.

With the extensive reinforcement of bolts and rivets, it appears likely to have belonged to the army and resembles a myriad types of equipment that was constructed like this, particularly their water tanks and big gun installments.
