Royal Observer Corps.

A Memory of Headley.

This was the view we enjoyed as members of the ROC which used the church tower as its look-out post. On exercises we would man the post round the clock. Formed to assist in the tracking of enemy aircraft in WW2, the role was extended post war to include monitoring radio active fall out following a nuclear attack, something which thankfully never became a reality. I was a member here in the early to mid 50s.
