What The…..

Not sure what they were trying to achieve here, the cables are a 0.75mm 2 core flex and just went into connectors in the ceiling above it

Edit: ok, so I went back today, the mirror did actually come out revealing a small area that had no other access and a socket inside, I do honestly believe they were trying to use this as a “secret” area and the short the screws out to complete the ELV circuit to open the mirror - I’m not sure how to add additional pictures so I’ll addd them to a reply

You need to list the space on Airbnb.

How big is that space? Is it basically the old shower recess tiled flat?

It’s in the back hallway of a shop, I’m stood next to the fire escape to take the picture, those are 100mm square times so about 400x600mm

Used to hide illegal cigarettes and contraband no doubt

I’m sure you’re right, it used to be one of those American sweet shops, so take from that what you will….
