REG Posted January 11, 2020 Share Posted January 11, 2020 I now live on Rotherwas. The pill box, still visible on Google, was demolished years ago apparently. The guard room next door is about to be demolished (10/1/20) There is an underground air raid shelter adjacent which I'll photograph and video in a couple of days Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've got a couple more I'll put up if anyone is interested. Trying to find a few things out from my mum as she worked there for a while in the war packing stuff, stencilling crates and taking full trollies to the railway pick up point, but her memory is a bit hazy now she is getting on in years. I will persevere though and hopefully come up with a bit of interesting stuff. QUOTE. Edited January 11, 2020 by ruxy I was pondering - I could understand a momento truck being left on a section of rails. However - that truck is vacuum braked for main line XP, hardly a internal line/siding truck ? Yes, I am 10 years too late. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B-Squadron Posted August 14, 2021 Share Posted August 14, 2021 My mother worked in the factory during the 2ndWW. Would like the location of the memorial to the people who spent the war years there. Any assistance appreciated. Allen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fred Posted September 5, 2021 Share Posted September 5, 2021 I have heard rumours that the old train from the Hereford site at Rotherwas was rolled into the pond on the site near the site entrance. I was wondering if you had any more information on this. Thanks. Fred Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
