Richard,
I’ve been looking through a few of your photo’s of airfields in Shropshire and came across the following –
What exactly is an MT Ramp?

MT = Mechanical Transport.
The ramp might also be used for loading vehicles etc onto flatbed vehicles which are not low-loaders.

It’s for servicing the underside, oil changes etc, if the parallel metal bridge part is there, but having looked at your photo it would appear to be exactly what Rlangham has suggested. The vehicle being unloaded reverses up to vertical side of the ramp.
