ROC Post Badingham Badingham Post was commissioned in March 1949 and was closed due to ROC restructuring in October 1968. The site during the posts operational life was prone to flooding due to its location. Repairs were made to external walls to help prevent this; but all attempts ultimately failed. During the late 1990's talks were held by Badingham Parish Council to have the site protected but have failed to have the site listed. The Post is located on the High Street (South) near to Trust Farm.
