Concrete Umbrella Between Two Yambol Hospital Buildings

On a visit to the main hospital in Yambol I came across this strange architecture anomaly. A concrete umbrella styled structure between two buildings on the hospital grounds. Surely not just built to keep people dry en routs from one to the other building? In any case it is in a state of needing repair like most of the hospital's buildings. 

Umbrella Stands Laid Bare in Yambol

This is a sign that the cold weather has finally arrived in Yambol. Umbrella stands laid bare with no seating for the popular outside coffee drinking that goes on here. they are of course all inside in the cafe nice and warm and cosy.
