Oil and gas industry needs storage tanks for transporting these natural gases to their destination as these gases must be transferred in highly safe trailers because of its harmful effects.So,there is very much requirement of these tanks.
Above my tiered bead storage, I have a piece of grid that I use for displaying some of my creations.
RAF Massingham Airfield Fuel Storage Depot, disused underground oil storage depot, known as ''Harpley Dams'' there are a number of underground tanks, concrete roads and old buildings which are all still surrounded by high security fencing but the site appears to be abandoned. Possibly a former camouflaged storage depot for aviation fuel for RAF Great Massingham and other nearby airfields ? It was situated next to a railway line and had its own sidings when it was built, the tanks, covered in grass, can still be be seen.
The Lynn and Fakenham railway reached Massingham, its inerim terminus in 1876. Throughuot its construction it made use of material from a quarry at nearby Harpley Dams (Wilson’s siding
named after the owner of the quarry) This was to prove useful in the short term but certainly in the future. Once the railway was finished by 1914 the quarry remained unused until 1938 when work started on the building of the RAF West Raynham a few miles away. There was a need for a fuel depot to serve this airfield and, later, to serve RAF Massingham next door. This was to be built by one of the big oil companies because of their expertise in building such
sites although it was not long before the Air Ministry became involved. Fuel was delived by rail, originating at Hutton Cranswick in Yorkshire via a link to Watton Carr which supplied Drifield and other local airfields. The fuel trains ran to South Lynn and on to RAF Massingham where the loco or locos ran round the train and then pulled it back to the depot where it propelled the tanks onto the site.
By the late 1940's some of the airfields had ceased to be operational. RAF West Raynham was as busy as ever and RAF Sculthorpe was being used by the U.S.A.F. In 1951 it played host to some giant B36 Bombers. They had ten engines and took 24 hours to refuel, and there were 7 of these-fuel hungry mammoths. This was a lot of tanker journeys to the Harpley Dams depot. Consideration was given to laying a pipeline but by the time this was in situ the B36's had gone. But the squadrons of the 47th Bombardment Wing made good use of it during their 10 year residence. This pipeline was overseen by RAF West Raynham, after all Sculthorpe was technically still an RAF airfield. Security dictated that any inspection required the waring of civilian clothes and the use of civilian transport. The pump for this pipeline was powered by a Rolls-Royce engine. This had a number of brass parts and after the site closed this attracted the attention of thieves who broke through the substantial Dacoit security fencing as part of their recycling plan. The terminus to this pipeline can still be seen at the south west corner of the old airfield.
The site was connected to the Government and Pipeline Storage System (GPSS) at Thetford and no longer had to be supplied by rail apart on rare occasions. By 1994 both RAF West Raynham and RAF Sculthorpe had closed, the site became redundant. Today the site is complete with a part-time caretaker looking after things. The pump for the RAF Sculthorpe pipeline was operated by a RollsRoyce engine. Once the site was closed this engine became the target of metal thieves who used considerable effort to beak through the substantial security fence to get to it. They also took time to remove the standby batteries from the emergency power supply hut. This pipeline was no doubt organised by the Air Ministry depot at Fakenham. At the end of World War Two it it ceased to be the airfield repair dapot and instead concentrated on rebuilding Sculthorpe and West Raynham. It had its own MT section and lots of equipment but acted purely as an admin site, contracting work out.
Harpley Dams update, information has now surfaced about the origins of the RAF fuel depot at Harpley Dams near Peddars Way. In March 1939 the joint committee of the MNER & M&GN railways decided to close down the Ballast Pits that had been used to build the railway in the 1880's. One was Wilson’s Sidings at the foot of Harpley Hill near Peddar’s Way. The RAF wanted to purchase it to build a Railserved Fuel Store for the near by airfields. This gave the contractors less than five months to construct it although there was no external pipework to lay. It was not connected to the national system until well after the war. RAF Sculthorpe was ultimately the only airfield to be serviced by the pipeline from this depot.

It is an essential part of an allotment to have some form of storage. The same would apply at home in your garden. This is all pretty obvious. It saves on transporting the heavy spades and various equipment need for digging over the land. Plus one of those water cans is almost a necessity in any form of growing produce, as it is what help to feed the seeds and allow them to growth. I guess the scienctist amongst you would say it provide lots of nutritional value, minerals and oxygen, along with the sun, which is the nature's clever part, I understand its called Photosythesis.

The green upright darlick looking container is for collecting all of your cuttings and debri and they are used to form your own manure. It can take a while though, possibly for the following year.
And yes, my plot is a mess. But no, I haven't yet lost the plot.
I decided to store away many of my Pinkys. It's honestly NOT because I don't like them anymore, it's because I was running out of space to store them all as complete figures and because a lot of my Pinkys were 'leaning', which was bothersome. I thought they'd be safer stored as pieces... (see blog for more info)

At the end of my cutting table there is room for one rolling unit. Top drawer: small scraps sorted by colour in reused strawberry containers with no lids, stacked inside of each other; 2 drawers of projects; 1 drawer is my daughter's!; bottom drawer is orphan blocks, extra blocks, that will get sorted/used later. Under the table is my strip pieces bin I use to make my weekly string blocks.
During WW2, the storage bunkers were used to store things like food, water, and documents. They were weather proof, heat / cool consistent and had their own air circulation system. Anyhow, one of the bunkers also was supposed to have had celophane films of various things. (not sure what).
Anyhow, when the Soviet Army invaded Berlin and liberated the airport, they couldn't get into some of the storage bunkers. Thus, they decided to blow up the steel doors to get access. This resulted in a fire that burned very hot - for several days.
While they don't know if anyone was killed, and the cello film was destroyed, these bunkers are still there and available for us to explore.
They've not been repaired, the black smoke/heat can be seen from the fire (it collapsed the concrete in places and twisted the steel reinforcing rods) and the warped doors are not all in their hinges. Strangely, they re-wired the lights - which are the only "repair" made.
