The Telecommunications Research Establishment (TRE) was established in Malvern, England in 1940 as the central research group for RAF applications of radar.
Development of radar had been initiated by Sir Henry Tizard's Aeronautical Research Committee in 1935 at Orfordness near Ipswich. The group moved to the nearby Bawdsey Research Station in 1936 and had a rather peripatetic existence before moving to Malvern College in May 1940. In November, it became the TRE. The TRE was merged with other establishments to form the Royal Radar Establishment in 1957. The whole was swallowed by the Defence Evaluation and Research Agency in 1995.
