The name

Why the Paddock Room

The Paddock was the codeword for an alternative Cabinet War Room (bunker) for Winston Churchill's World War II government under a corner of the Post Office Research Station site.

The name derives from the nearby Paddock Road NW2, in turn named after a nineteenth-century stud farm, the Willesden Paddocks, situated nearby.
