HistoryThe site dates back to September 1942 when a depot was constructed near Bicester to provide logistical support for operations in Europe during the Second World War.[1] It is serviced by the Bicester Military Railway.[1] In 1961 the ordnance depots at Didcot and Branston were closed and a Central Ordnance Depot was created at Bicester.[1] Between 1980 and 1982 the ordnance depots at Chilwell and Ruddington were also closed resulting in an increased role for the remaining central ordnance depots at Bicester and Donnington.[1] The depot became known as the Defence Storage and Distribution Centre in April 1999.[1] A bomb disposal training base, built at a cost of circa £100 million and including a cave complex, a dive pool and roadways was established at St George's Barracks on the site in March 2013.[2] Then in September 2014, 23 Pioneer Regiment, which had been based at St David's Barracks on the site since the 1940s, was disbanded.[3] 1 Regiment RLC moved from Gütersloh in Germany to St David's Barracks at Bicester in 2016.[4] See also
