I had them on my old car (1954 series II) a previous owner stuck rubber bungs in them I think.

well make that two without as my 'new' car (1967 model) has not got them. Maybe they stopped putting these extra holes in after a certain date?

Those holes are for the LHD dipper switch and clutch pedal. An unused dipper switch hole is covered with a medal plate with a seal under it. (very common on LHD cars) The clutch hole probably was sealed with one of those impregnanted patches that are on the chassis legs.
