Watson Watt
The first British experiment with a system that was to become known as radar was carried out today (Feb., 26) in 1935 under the supervision of Scots scientist Robert Watson Watt. Watt, a descendent of the great James Watt, soon had a working version of the detection device covering practically all of the British Isles.

If you want to read the definitive account of the early history and development of Radar, get yourself the book "RDF1" by Michael Bragg (retired NATS engineer)
