| TRE was established in Worth Matravers, which is four miles to the west of Swanage, UK, in May 1940, as the central research group for RAF applications of radar. It moved to Malvern College, Worcestershire in May 1942 because of fears that the Germans might launch their own Biting-like commando raid against it if it had remained by the coast. At the end of the war TRE moved from Malvern College, to HMS Duke, a stokers' training school, also in Malvern. Development of radar had been initiated by Sir Henry Tizard's Committee for the Scientific Survey of Air Defence in 1935 at Orfordness near Ipswich. The group moved to the nearby Bawdsey Research Station in 1936 and from there to the University College at Dundee in 1939 before moving to Worth Matravers in May 1940. dermalogica australiaaccessories | |
