The road sign points to 'DM Crombie' which stands for 'Defence Munitions Centre, Crombie' a large cache of naval armaments formerly known as Royal Naval Armament Depot (RNAD) Crombie. This is associated with the Naval dockyard of Rosyth, close enough to make the transfer of armaments onto warships convenient, yet far enough away to make any explosion of the munitions depot unlikely to cause too much dockyard or warship damage.
