The National Shell Filling Factory, Chilwell, was a World War I United Kingdom Government-owned explosives Filling Factory. Its formal title was National Filling Factory No. 6. It was located near Chilwell, at that time a village, in Nottinghamshire on the main road from Nottingham to Ashby de la Zouch. During the Great War it filled high explosives into some 19 million shells - some 50% of all shells fired. At the end of the war, in 1919, the site became a Royal Army Ordnance Corps (RAOC) storage depot.
