The Harwell: "Britain's oldest original computer, the Harwell, is being sent to the National Museum of Computing at Bletchley where it is to be restored to working order. The computer, which was designed in 1949, first ran in 1951 and was designed to perform mathematical calculations; it lasted until 1973. ... The system was built and used by staff at the Atomic Energy Research Establishment in Harwell, Oxfordshire. ..." -- [BBC][3/9/2009].
