The Scramspace launch was in Norway because Aust Govt refused launch permission in Nov 2013, he didn't elaborate why. Possibly because of the trajectory (straight down) not being over water.
UK was using WAC Corporals at Woomera IIRC but not sure about that.
More stuff to look up... 
Better go google Woomera see what I can find.
OK, Black Knight\Blue Streak launch vehicles. Haven't heard those names in a long time. Last Satellite launch in 1971.
Lot of missile testing, Rapier, Bloodhound etc. |
The Encyclopdeia Astronautica is even better than Google for these things:

And I was mistaken, there were Australian designed rockets though only sub-orbital.
