Guessing a school or similar? 

It is a WW2 filter bunker in Inverness.  2 underground levels and about 50 rooms.  It was used 24x7 during WW2, and hardended in the 90s (full NBC double air-locks etc) to allow high heid yins to hide until all the carnage of a nuke strike was over.  2 x 6 cylinder perkins engines driving 3-phase generators INSIDE the building - with their own air supply and separate air-locks (since the air was not filtered to NBC level) to keep the building running after the EMP.  Bikes to keep the air circulating in the event of the power and the generators all failing!  

 

It served me well during covid ?

 

Anyway it is now alarmed up.
