SO8742 : Former ADRDE site at Earl's Croome

Former ADRDE site at Earl's Croome
These buildings viewed from the road near Stonehall in Earl's Croome road date from World War II when this site was built as a Trials Unit to support the ADRDE (Army Defence Research & Development Establishment) at Pale Manor at nearby Malvern. A unit moved here in September 1942 from Woodyates, near Salesbury. Some of the officers stationed here were billeted at Earl's Croome Court, half a mile away in the village of Earl's Croome. In the early 1970s, I can remember a barrage balloon tethered here.
