Oxfordshire's Leafield Technical Centre is now home to several race car and other high tech companies. Beautiful buildings in a lovely rural setting.

"The site was originally taken on by Marconi, on behalf of the Post Office, in the early part of the twentieth century and came to play a hugely influential role in British telecommunications during the two world wars. Subsequently it became a BT training facility, before being sold in 1993 to TWR and the Arrows F1 team. The facility was bought by MCT in 2003 and was home, briefly, to the Super Aguri F1 team."
