  • Royal Ordnance Factory (ROF) Bridgwater was a factory between the villages of Puriton and Woolavington in the Sedgemoor district of Somerset, UK that produced high explosives for munitions. It was slightly above sea level, between the 5 and 10 metre contour lines on Ordnance Survey maps. BAE Systems closed it when decommissioning was completed in July 2008
    t was constructed early in World War II for the Ministry of Supply, with the Ministry of Works as Agents. It was designed as an Explosive ROF to produce RDX, a new experimental high-explosive developed at the RGPF Waltham Abbey.[2] Construction work started in 1939 and it opened in 1941.[citation needed]
    On 29 June 1951 an explosion killed six men. No cause was ever identified.[3]
    It was also known as "ROF 37", a name that was reflected in its sports and social association, the "37 Club", just outside the perimeter fence

    Girlfriend's dad worked here many years ago, and said he knew loads of people who had died of cancer!
    He got out though, but due to money, he has not spoken to girlfriend for over 10 years!

    Oh well, if BAE have suddenly decided to release this 'prime for development' land, you can bet the housing market is coming close to topping out some time soon. I wonder will the bubble burst as hard as last time ;o)

    My Mum worked out there during WWII as a stoker known as the smallest stoker in the UK--she turned down an award because she did not wish to receive an award for making bombs--she was allocated the work--no choice in WWII--my Dad was in the desert in Egypt part of the Royal Engineers....

    I delivered here around 20 years ago. I remember having to turf out your pockets of lighters or phones etc and security would put them in a locker before you entered site. I remember going to a bunkered building and seeing shells on the table. It’s called “gravity smart campus” now,they’re building some business park. A railway line used to connect by jct 23 m5.

    What a huge area - must have taken some time to demolish all those buildings!
    Any idea what the remaining buildings are used for?
    Great drone footage and music as always - well done 👍

    Housing estate next such a shame.Councils,planners and developers continue their relentless pursuit in eradicating Britain’s wartime heritage up and down the country.Maybe its just me seeing beyond the concrete structures,runways,pillboxes etc i think most people couldn’t care less.But if everyone considered for a minute what all the people of the uk had to do to keep the enemy at bay during the most significant time this country has gone through perhaps then a few of these now rare sites could be kept out of respect for all those who did their duty.

    This site is going to be the first Smart campus , with factories, shops , offices and residential etc,the site is now called " gravity' ha e a Google, very interesting and weird. Elon Musk visited last year to see about viability. I live in the town and no one is talking about it ??? It's very strange
