Tank farm, Purfleet
Tank farm, Purfleet
Built in an old chalk quarry, these tanks have now gone. The central chimney in the distance is for the Thames Board Mills boilers, the power station at right is Littlebrook. This view is before the QE2 bridge was built - only the tunnels connect the two ends of the M25.
