Early Radar
Development in the United Kingdom
|
|
|
| This website
outlines the story
of early radar development
and its importance to the UK
in World War
II. It focuses on work
in Purbeck, Dorset - which
was the nerve centre for radar
development from 1940 - 1942.
It also tells something of the
talented
scientists who developed
radar, explores the lasting legacy
of their work, and gives details
on where to find more
information. In
1991 a few people interested in
establishing a public record of this significant era
of our history set
up the Purbeck
Radar Museum Trust.
The
Trust sponsored this website
as well as a small radar
exhibition which is now in the Swanage
Museum & Heritage Centre in Dorset.
The Trust has also
published various booklets
etc about early radar.
There is also a memorial
to the wartime radar work at
St Aldhelm's Head. Follow the
links for a more detailed
introduction to the website or to contact
the Trust.
