WW2 British '7th Battalion , Herts Home Guard' Paperwork Grouping

An interesting group of three items of ephemera all marked to the 7th Battalion of the Herts Home Guard who had their HQ at Chipperfield in WW2.
One of the pieces is a March 1944 dated four page typed set of Standing Operational Orders all relating to action in the event of an invasion around their locality. These orders list key instructions such as the mustering of men & their associated code words as well as listing Out-Stations to be manned in the event of invasion . These are numbered 1 to 7 & list the 'Barncroft' or 'Water Tower O.P' & British Legion as points where signals communications should be maintained. Other recognisable points where the battalion had posts are Keys Yard, Northchurch Hall, Cooper Recreation Club Pavilion & the Bridgewater Arms .
A printed table of the field telephone lines for the 7th Battalion lists Battalion HQ & Company HQs phone circuits as well as those for A ,B, C & D Coys.
Finally a training pamphlet of Field Telephony dated December 1943 is named to a man named 'Webb' .
Interesting group with much local history .
