The people of Purbeck are rightly proud of the highly secret work carried out in the Second World War at Britain's
Silicon Valley - Worth and Langton Matravers, all the way to St Aldhelm's Head - and how much this helped to win the
Battle of the Atlantic, support D-Day and the invasion of German-occupied Europe, and eventually gain the victory in
that conflict.
But what is the German story? Did Germany even have radar, and if they did, how did it compare with Purbeck's radars?
Want to know more? Then do join us at our illustrated talk.
Be prepared for a whole series of surprises as famous Cambridge researcher Dr Phil Judkins of Purbeck Radar
Museum Trust reveals the German story of radar development; shows how German developments inflicted massive
losses on the Allies, and came close to turning the tide of the entire war.
