Caergeiliog Chapel Hall: temporary wartime Operations Room

During the Second World War RAF Valley operated as a fighter station for No. 9 Group defending England's industrial north-west and shipping in the Irish Sea. Operations against the enemy were planned and directed initially from this temporary Operations Room at the nearby village of Caergeiliog's chapel hall. A purpose-built Operations Block would be built later, the chapel hall having to suffice until such time as it became operational.
