On the night of 27th July 1942 after the raid that caused widespread damage in the area, an unexploded bomb was discovered in the basement party wall. Another rested unexploded in the outbuildings of ‘The Mitre.’ When later analysed it was discovered that these were Sprengband C.50s, the first ‘Firepots’. (See Michael Bowyer Air Raid! pub. 1986)
