Image description

Two engineers at console of MARS computer, APD laboratories, 1959 English Electric established a branch at Kidsgrove during the early 1950s to exploit the rising power of the early computers. The company pioneered and marketed an early valve computer called DEUCE in 1953 and then developed early industrial ranges such as the KDN2 and KDF9 in 1957. The Mars computer being tested was a development from these years and appears takes up a whole floor of the building, although semi-conductors replaced valves machines like Mars were still low tech however represented major achievements in research and development within a thriving and innovative industry.
