Full Description

A post-WWII pipeline filters building at the Seabank Tank Farm in Invergordon.

The building was investigated in 2015 as part of the ARCH project 'Invergordon in World War I'. A brick-built Filter House survives in the Seabank Tank Farm at this location. It is not on WWI plans or WWII aerial photographs, suggesting it is part of post WWII developments in the tank farm. There are Intact filters, two filters plus bypass on both 16" pipelines, in excellent condition. <1>
