We’re off to the coast for the latest podcast from Suffolk Money, supported by Kingsfleet, as Colin Low pays a visit to the fascinating Radar Museum at Bawdsey.


Graham Murchie, the current Chair of Bawdsey Radar, explains how radar was actually developed here on the Suffolk Coast and, how instrumental Bawdsey Manor was to winning the First and Second World Wars. 

 

Housed in the original Grade II listed transmission bunker, the Museum provides a unique window into the history of radar and of the people who worked there. It’s truly remarkable that the work which took place there during the 1930s was so secret, that even when the King asked one of the team what she did, she wasn’t allowed to tell him!


Set in a truly beautiful, remote location, this award-winning museum really is worth a visit. To find out more, please visit https://www.bawdseyradar.org.uk
