That was my thoughts along with the sewage bed too. Can you get an os grid ref for them. Is there a local Royal British Legion branch near to you or museum that you can take the photos along to.

I think its an old water tank they have quite a few of them near Clipstone Forrest in Notts on the old MoD tank testing grounds.

When I lived that way I used to collect Daphnia from them in the summer to feed to my tropical fish.
You also get them with corregated steel surrounds presumably used as a mould when they built them.
