Following Sassoon’s death in 1939, Trent Park House began its second chapter as a wartime surveillance centre. The new museum unveils the extraordinary story of the ‘Secret Listeners’ – intelligence operators hidden in the basement – whose eavesdropping of senior German prisoners led to some of the most important intelligence breakthroughs of WWII. Trent Park House, Enfield is of national and international significance on a level with Bletchley Park.
