A little History
This Wiki link will tell you something about Fladbury past and present. This link to the BBC website will give some infomation about Fladbury in WW2. Follow this link to hear an old recording about the village.
Broadband Access
Telephone and broadband lines in Fladbury are fed from "Cropthorne exchange", which is actually in Fladbury! This was upgraded to provide broadband (ADSL) in 2004 and ADSL+ in 2006, but scored less than 8% in BT's survey so is unlikely to be upgraded to provide "superfast" fibre-based broadband any time soon. You can see details of Broadband and Cable Availability here.
