The code-breaking Colossus computer, used at Bletchley Park during the Second World War, was built at the Post Office Research Station in Dollis Hill by a team led by Tommy Flowers.
The station was relocated to Martlesham Heath at the end of the 1970s.
The Post Office Research Station building has now been converted into 62 flats and is now known as 'Chartwell Court', with an access road called 'Flowers Close'.
The alternative Cabinet War Room bunker for Winston Churchill's World War II government code-named Paddock is located under a corner of the Post Office Research Station
