Scene of a fire and explosion on the 17th July 1969, in which 5 firemen and a civilian worker were killed. One of these tanks caught fire during demolition works; an opening was being cut to enable access for fire-fighting when there was a large explosion - at the time the fire-fighters and civilian were standing on the roof of the tank, which was blown off.
