| This picture has at it's centre the earthworks still visible from the construction of a large number of underground fuel tanks. These tanks were constructed as part of the Cold War provisions and were part of a huge network of secret storage and distribution networks for fuel reserves in the event of a nuclear war. |

The image is 1946 so these tanks were built as part of the Air Ministry's distributed fuel depot network. Originally deliveries would have been by rail and lorry not pipeline. The depot was likely connected to the GPSS pipeline system in the 50's and used throughout the cold war into the 90's. The majority of these sites are now privately owned and operated by oil companies. |
