Summary
| Description |
English: A .jpg image taken on the Isle of Wight in July 2013. The picture shows a building that was used as a PLUTO pumping station in WWII and disguised as an Ice Cream parlour. On Google Earth, the latitude and longitude of the building are: 50°39'35.82"N 1° 8'27.38"W The picture shows how an original camouflaged building that was used during World War 2 to disguise fuel oil pumps has survived to the present day and is still being used. It will be of interest to anyone researching the history of the P.L.U.T.O (Pipeline Under the Oceans) Operation to supply fuel oil to the Allied Armies after D-Day, June 6th 1944. |
