The UK Highway Code is brimming with common sense. So much so that even someone who isn't familiar with every rule knows roughly how to behave.
Rule 240 says "You MUST NOT stop or park on a pedestrian crossing, including the area marked by the zig-zag lines (see Rule 191)..."
In case you're wondering, Rule 191 is very similar. It says: "You MUST NOT park on a crossing or in the area covered by the zig-zag lines."
Historic Environment Record for H BUILDING, Malvern, UK
The building, having military purposes and designated locally as H building, sits on a former Government Research site in Malvern, Worcestershire at Grid Ref SO 786 447. This site was the home of the Telecommunications Research Establishment (TRE) from 1946. It has been owned by QinetiQ since 2001 and is in the process (October 2017 to February 2018) of being sold for redevelopment.
This unique building has at its heart a ‘Rotor’ bunker with attached buildings to house radar screens and operators as well as plant such as emergency generators. Twenty nine Rotor operational underground bunkers were built in great urgency around Britain to modernise the national air defence network, following the Soviet nuclear test in 1949. Two factors make H building’s construction and purpose unique; this prototype is the only Rotor bunker built above ground and it was the home to National Air Defence government research for 30 years.This example of a ROTOR bunker is unique instead of being buried, it was built above ground to save time and expense, as it was not required to be below ground for its research purpose.
H Building was the prototype version of the Rotor project R4 Sector Operations Centre air defence bunkers. Construction began in August 1952 with great urgency - work went on 24 hours a day under arc lights. The main bunker is constructed from cross bonded engineering bricks to
form walls more than 2 feet thick in a rectangle approximately 65ft x 50ft. The two internal floors are suspended from the ceiling. The original surrounding buildings comprise, two radar control and operator rooms, offices and machine plant.
The building was in generally good order and complete. The internal layout of the bunker remains as originally designed. The internal surfaces and services have been maintained and modernised over the 55 years since its construction (Figure 3). The first floor has been closed over.
There are some later external building additions around the periphery to provide additional accommodation.
In parts of the building the suspended floor remains, with 1950s vintage fittings beneath such as patch panels and ventilation ducts.
The building has been empty since the Defence Science & Technology Laboratories [Dstl] moved out in October 2008
As lead for radar research, RRE was responsible for the design of both the replacement radars for the Chain Home radars and the command and control systems for UK National Air Defence.
Project Rotor was based around the Type 80 radar and Type 13 height finder. The first prototype type 80 was built at Malvern in 1953 code named Green Garlic. Live radar feeds against aircraft sorties, were fed into the building to carry out trials of new methods plotting and reporting air activity
A major upgrade of the UK radar network was planned in the late 1950s – Project ‘Linesman’ (military) / ‘Mediator’ (civil) – based around Type 84 / 85 primary radars and the HF200 height finder. A prototype type 85 radar (Blue Yeoman) was built adjacent to H Building in 1959. live radar returns were piped into H Building.
Subsequently a scheme to combine the military and civil radar networks was proposed. The building supported the research for the fully computerised air defence scheme known as Linesman, developed in the 1960s, and a more integrated and flexible system (United Kingdom Air Defence Ground Environment or UKADGE) in the 1970s.
The building was then used for various research purposes until the government relinquished the main site to QinetiQ in 2001. Government scientists continued to use the building until 2008. Throughout its life access was strictly controlled by a dedicated pass sytem.
Notable civil spin-offs from the research in this building include the invention of touch screens and the whole UK Civil Air Traffic Control system which set the standard for Europe.
Chronology
1952 - Construction work is begun. The layout of the bunker area duplicates the underground version built at RAF Bawburgh.
1953 - Construction work is largely completed.
1954 - The building is equipped and ready for experiments.
1956-1958 - Addition of 2nd storey to offices
1957-1960 - Experiments of automatic tracking, novel plot projection systems and data management and communications systems tested.
1960-1970 - Project Linesman mediator experiments carried out including a novel display technique known as a Touch screen ( A World First)
TOUCHSCREEN
A team led by Eric Johnson in H building at Malvern. RRE Tech Note 721 states: This device, the Touch Sensitive Electronic Data Display, or more shortly the ‘Touch Display’, appears to have the potential to provide a very efficient coupling between man and machine. (E A Johnson 1966). See also patent GB 1172222.
Information From Hugh Williams/mraths
1980-1990 - During this period experiments are moved to another building and H building is underused.
1990-1993 - The building was re-purposed and the bunker (room H57) had the first floor closed over to add extra floor area.
2008- The bunker was used until late 2008 for classified research / Joint intelligence centre
2019 - Visual Recording of the buildings interior by MRATHS. Be means of a LIDAR scan and photographs being taken. The exterior was mapped with a drone to allow a 3D Image of the building to be created via Photogrammetry. This was created in Autodesk Photo Recap.
2020 - Building demolished as part of the redevelopment of the site.

This 1970 Boss Mustang came in for some light repairs, it was in good condition but had a few dents and dings on the quarters, doors and hood. it had the wrong interior for a Boss so we installed the correct deluxe interior seats that went in this model. The body was refinished the original code "N" Pastel Blue. This one turned out very nice.

The Miami Heat tied up the NBA Finals in Oklahoma City last night at an even 1-1, and while that the QuiBids office (which, you might recall, is located about five miles north of the Thunder’s Chesapeake Energy Arena) a little bit down this morning, we know the Thunder will storm back into Miami at full force when they start Game 3 on Sunday.
In the meantime though, we’ll be cheering for our team a couple of different ways, and you can join in on the fun too!
Earlier this week we set it up so that you can Profile Pic(k) this year’s NBA Champion over at the QuiBids Facebook. Pick the winner correctly and we’ll issue a promotional code that’s good for free bids!
We also built a super-fun app that’ll let you spruce up your Facebook profile picture in honor of the Finals! Add a James Harden beard, a pair of goofy Russell Westbrook glasses, or LeBron’s headband!
And lastly, since Sunday’s a long, long, long ways off, we put together a little soundtrack of songs to get you there and get your NBA Finals fix along the way. Here are a bunch of the best songs with the names of this year’s Eastern and Western Conference Champions in them. It’s also worth noting that in assembling these playlists, I noticed the general trend that “thunder” skewed a little metal while “heat” toward cheesy ‘80s pop.
Anyway, check these songs out on the YouTube embeds or via Spotify below!
“Canned Heat” — Jamiroquai
“Thunderstruck” — AC/DC (obviously)
