Thanks Krista, I had the same thought as you about the first post.

To me, this looks like a nice comfortable chair to sit in with a coffee on a side table and perhaps a good book.

Or maybe it's just getting too close to break time!

(Well restrained, Lynne ;)

This one really stumped me; I like a mystery. So I asked someone I know who was in the care sector and is now a qualified buildings surveyor. He reckons that they're individual toilet stalls. Small hole at the top for the inlet, bigger hole below for the outlet. The presence of a second hole in each of the stalls suggests that the toilets were changed at some time. The far right stall is patched up, hinting that it was removed (possibly because of breakage).

The galvanised space at the back would've protected the pipes from the damage (and from causing damage, too), and it would also have had a hinged lid that would allow access for maintenance.

Well, it sounded convincing to me...!
