Figure 1: Extract from a Midland Railway land plan (sheet 2, dated 1912) showing ​​​​​​the location of Blea Moor Tunnel Naphtha Store.

A small structure, rectangular in plan and labelled 'Naphtha Store', is clearly shown on sheet 20 of the 1911 set of Midland Railway Company 'land plans' - see extract, right or below.

This structure is located at the foot of the western retaining wall (between the retaining wall and the 'Down' - i.e. northbound main running line), immediately to the north of Bridge 71 (Force Gill Aquaduct).
