Help needed with Battle of Britain Fuel and bomb stores for Maddox sim.

Hi all. First post.
I am hoping this might be a good place to ask for some help.
Oleg Maddox and team are looking for information on English, French and German airfield installations for the upcoming game/simulator Storm of War Battle of Britain. They need help at the moment looking for bomb stores and fuel stores at airfields during the Battle of Britain.
Any help is welcome.
Please either post your replies here of at the forum where the original request was made:

I will link to this forum. I see there is already a thread on bomb stores. Any additional photos or other help are very welcome!

Thanks!!

Does anyone know about these? I've seen a few photos on the internet where thay are labelled 'bomb store', but all you can see is a brick wall. Does anyone know what the stucture was like, or is it all underground except for the wall? It seems strange.

It's part of an open structure, known as a rolling dump. The truck would pull alongside the wall which was roughly at the same height as the lorry bed. The bombs would then be rolled off the truck onto the top of the wall and there would be a slope down the opposite side enabling the weapons to be put into rows under control. This type of store did not come into use before c.1942.

Are you looking specifically for airfield bomb and fuel installations used by aircraft during the B of B or for any airfield extant during that short period?

It is a request directly from the game developer Oleg Maddox, developer of the IL2 and Forgotten Battles series of sims. Information is for a sim based initially on the Battle of Britain and later encompassing other theatres of war and other periods of WWII (also there is work being done on a Korean war add-on).
The specific request was for these 2 things. I think at this stage in game development that most other things are probably already modelled.

During the time of the B of B there were two standards of Bomb Stores on airfields; the pre-war standard of which this is an example at Wick, Scotland:

wtp2.appspot.com/wheresthepath.htm?lat=5...6445&gz=16&oz=5>=1

Post 4 and 5 above have images of structures.

and the 1940 standard of which this is a typical road layout (Bodney, Lincs)

wtp2.appspot.com/wheresthepath.htm?lat=5...8506&gz=17&oz=5>=1

The rolling dump store (Post 6 above) was not introduced until 1942 well after the B of B
