Duchess of Cambridge Visits Bletchley Park

The Duchess of Cambridge has visited the famous code-breaking centre Bletchley Park to mark the completion of its restoration project. She also met a code-breaker who worked with her paternal Grandmother Valerie Glassborow. 

Miss Glassborow was a civilian member of staff at the site and worked in Hut 16. Bletchley Park was vital during the Second World War breaking supposedly secret German cypher systems and messages such as Enigma and Lorenz.

Tim Cooper visited the site ahead of the Royal visit.
