(GPSS)Government Pipelines and Storage System

All of the major RAF and USAF airbases around the UK, together with key installations such as AWE Aldermaston and AWE Burghfield, are connected to large oil refineries around the coastline using a massive network of underground high pressure pipelines and Petroleum Storage Depots (PSD), referred to as the Government Pipelines and Storage System (GPSS). For safety reasons, the locations of these pipelines are marked with identification posts which look rather like bird feeding tables with brightly coloured roofs.

The Depot supplying RAF Bases in the Ouse Valley and North Humberside area is located here at PSD Rawcliffe Bridge.
