Fernhurst Research Station

Plant Protection Limited moved to this site in 1945 and opened a research institute on the estate of Sir Felix Schuster (1854-1936). The research institute was to investigate pest and disease control, and was also known as a horticultural research station. In June 1951 an international conference, with scientists from 39 countries, took place at the site on food scarcity.
On 10 May 1955, the site was visited by the Duke of Edinburgh. Another international conference took place at the site in June 1956.
ICI Plant Protection had its international headquarters at the site in the 1970s and 1980s. In 1986 a new international conference centre was opened on the site by the Prime Minister, Margaret Thatcher. ICI Public Health was formed in 1989 and situated at the site.
In April 1990, the site won a Queen's Award for Technological Achievement for herbicides, fungicides and pesticides.
