During the Second World War, the vicarage was used by the Special Operations Executive to train agents. One of the trainers was Kim Philby, later to become known as a double agent spying for the Soviet Union. This was his first post in intelligence, but he soon worked his way up to become a senior member of the British intelligence community.
