The flat at '''79B Aickman Road''' was in reality a timeship. Because of the similarity of certain aspects of the design, the [[Eleventh Doctor]] later believed that it had once belonged to [[the Silence]]. It was landed at this address in [[Colchester]] on [[Earth]] before [[2010]].

Number 79B, Aickman Road was a timeship that had crash-landed on [[Earth]] some time before [[2010]]. The ship hid itself by pretending to be the upper story of 79 Aickman Road over a flat occupied by [[Craig Owens]].  
The Ship was originally owned by The Silence when they occupied America prior to 1969. It was their main base of operations besides [[Graystark Hall Orphanage]]. When the [[Silent]]s kidnapped [[Amy Pond ]], they kept her prisoner here for unknown reasons. When [[The Doctor]], [[River Song]] and [[Rory Williams]] went to rescue her, they set in motion events that led to all the [[Silent]]s being killed. The ship then somehow ended up on Aickman Road and started to use humans to power itself.


The ship's autopilot attempted to relaunch the ship using [[human]]s as pilots, specifically selecting humans who wanted to escape or explore. However, the mind of a human was too weak to launch the ship and the people selected by the autopilot were killed. This created a pattern of decay on the ceiling below, much like rot in appearance. The autopilot's attempt to launch the ship with humans also caused a [[time loop]] to form briefly, almost resulting in the [[The Doctor's TARDIS|TARDIS]] and [[Amy Pond|Amy]] being thrown into the [[Time Vortex]].
