Women made up about three-fourths of the 9,000 people who worked at Bletchley Park. Bletchey Park was a mansion and country estate about north of London. During World War II, it was the principal centre for Allied attempts to break the military and government codes of the Axis powers, especially Nazi Germany. Bletchley's success was an important factor in the victory of the Allies. Most women were employed in clerical or secretarial jobs, but a few dozen became prominent for their code-breaking and management accomplishments. Bletchley Park and its activities were closely guarded secrets during the war. Bletchley Park's existence and accomplishments were not revealed until the mid 1970s.
The following is a list of women who worked at Bletchley Park.
