"P.L.U.T.O" Buried tanks serving the WWII "Pipe Line Under The Ocean" fuel network: the tanks are seen here before they received a fuller-covering of earthen overburden.

This photo is interesting as if you check 'newferryonline.org.uk' MEMORIES AND PHOTOS-1970s and scroll down to MAYFIELDS FOOTBALL PITCHES you will see a photo claiming to show the hill containing the Pluto tanks. This hill is plainly in view today. This hill is definitely not where these tanks are shown on the 1946 photo. It is to the right, on this photo, but must have been built at a later date.
