I have one in my bathroom at home, although it’s a plastic rather than metal plate. In my case it was because when the pandemic started and everyone was on lockdown I determined that my central heating system was leaking, so unable to get someone round I cut a hole into the void where the pipe work runs between floors to see if the leak was in that area, which it wasn’t. I then covered the hole up with a plate as I don’t have plastering skills. I’m sure this wasn’t the reason in Birchhanger services public toilets, it was probably something to do with penises.

Are you serious? It's obviously a glory hole lol.
TomA0912@reddit (OP)
Really?
denjin@reddit
Motorway services, waist height, between the end two toilet cubicles. It's definitely a glory hole.

Maybe they were thinking about installing emergency help buttons but had second thoughts.

But where’s the cord? It makes no damn sense

It’s literally two toilet cubicles adjoined nothing like that anywhere near
Evil-Mike@reddit
Where the door lock hits the wall and had started to make a hole?
TomA0912@reddit (OP)
Nope. And there’s nothing on the back of either door that makes contact when slammed open
