Thame Local History

Thame Park's World War II Service
|
As war came, Thame Park was taken over the Government, and Sir Frank Bowden
moved out for the duration. The park was first of all home to a party of refugees from the Spanish Civil War. A local stabbing incident ended their stay. The Special Overseas Executive, or SOE, then used the house to train its agents for service in France. For a time, Thame Park became a small part of France. |
