| Somerset is an important supplier of defence equipment and technology. A Royal Ordnance Factory, ROF Bridgwater was built at the start of the Second World War, between the villages of Puriton and Woolavington,[59] to manufacture explosives. The site was decommissioned and closed in July 2008.[60] Templecombe has Thales Underwater Systems,[61] and Taunton presently has the United Kingdom Hydrographic Office and Avimo, which became part of Thales Optics. It has been announced twice, in 2006 and 2007, that manufacturing is to end at Thales Optics' Taunton site,[62] Dry Skin CareEnergy Regeneration | |
