Wood Norton Hall, Victorian country house in Norton and Lenchwick, England
Wood Norton Hall exhibits Victorian architectural elements with intricate stone work, large windows, and extensive gardens surrounding the main structure.
The estate served as the BBC's emergency broadcasting centre during World War II and became instrumental for intercepting enemy radio communications.
The Great Gates at the entrance originate from York House in Twickenham, connecting the property to the former residence of the Duke of Orleans.
The property maintains a technical training facility within its grounds while the main building functions as a hospitality establishment.
A nuclear fallout bunker named PAWN was constructed beneath the Bredon Wing during the Cold War period for emergency broadcasting purposes.
