About Fencing in Newton Aycliffe
Newton Aycliffe in County Durham grew from a top secret wartime munitions factory, built in 1940 on marshy, fog shrouded land chosen partly to hinder enemy bombing, which operated around the clock during the Second World War employing some 17,000 workers, many of them women known locally as the Aycliffe Angels. After the war the factory site was handed to private industry, and the settlement was formally designated a new town in 1947 to house the growing workforce.
