Bradford used for scenes in Netflix film Six Triple Eight

The historic area was used as a backdrop for the Netflix drama Six Triple Eight.

What is Six Triple Eight about?

"The 6888th Battalion contributed to the war effort in a unique way: by sorting through a three-year backlog of undelivered mail and delivering the mail to American soldiers far from home," says Netflix.

"In the face of discrimination and a vast, unfamiliar country divided by a global conflict, these 855 women brought hope to the front lines.

"'No mail, low morale' was the motto they gave themselves, and they fulfilled the promise of delivered mail (17 million pieces of it!) and morale when the United States needed it most."

Six Triple Eight is directed by Tyler Perry.
