What's in the box?

Jack · Wed 27/02/2019 20:03:29

A specific type of hut?

A guard post?

Cassiebsg · Wed 27/02/2019 21:20:35

AnasAbdin, nope.

Uhm... maybe it was at one time Jack, can't say for sure. Not what is used for now a days though.
I'll let a couple more guesses come, otherwise I'll accept your version and say what is used for now.

A telescope/photography platform?

Cassiebsg · Wed 27/02/2019 21:46:39

It's not that big, just look at the door opening...

dayowlron · Wed 27/02/2019 22:19:46

Think I have seen one of those before but dont remember where or what it was, but I am going to guess an entrance to a storm cellar?

Cassiebsg · Wed 27/02/2019 22:25:18

There's only the expected size in there... not a Dr.Who kind of small on the outsize big on the inside.

Also, there's only empty space inside... maybe a built in bench.

Cassiebsg · Thu 28/02/2019 23:44:23

As there doesn't seem to be other guesses. I'll let Jack take the turn with his "Guard post"...

It's a bus stop.

Maybe it would have been more obvious if I had included the road on my photo...

How many people fit in there? A single-person bus stop seems rather overkill.

Kweepa · Fri 01/03/2019 02:28:52

Also, if you sit in there you presumably can't see the bus coming.
Design fail.

I was thinking once u went inside there would be stairs or a ladder down, however I agree that is a terrible design for a bus stop.

Some where in the North of Portugal, exactly where I no longer remember, been a long time I took that picture.
Yes, there's only place for 1 maybe 2 people inside.
I'm guessing they maybe just reused it as a bus stop and was originally built for something like a Guard post, or just a weather shelter by the road, in case of bad weather.

A dilator for making things wider.

Tycho Magnetic Anomaly · Fri 08/03/2019 08:27:13

Danvzare · Fri 08/03/2019 13:23:25

A whisk?

Tycho Magnetic Anomaly · Fri 08/03/2019 19:01:32

Jack · Fri 08/03/2019 22:29:21

An apparatus to retrieve a monocle dropped in one's tea?
