Cowbridge House, Шаблон:Convert southeast of Malmesbury, Wiltshire, England, was an 18th-century country house that was demolished in 2007.[1]
During the Second World War, the EKCO company used the house as a shadow factory for the manufacture of radar equipment.[2] The factory continued after the war, producing radio and telecommunications equipment;[3] the company was taken over by Pye TMC and then Philips, and later became part of AT&T. The site was in use as offices until 2004 when the owners, Lucent Technologies, moved their operations to Swindon. Subsequently the site was redeveloped for housing.[4]
