FEEDBACK

star rating  When we last visited some 15 years ago it was pretty much a display of vehicles and a good one too. It's now a small-ish museum with loads of... read more displays of wartime military and civilian stuff but fewer vehicles. The staff (I believe mostly volunteers?) are knowledgeable and one whose name I've forgotten gave us a really interesting talk on the history of various machine guns which included handling them too (all de-activated obviously). Mr Wilkinson spoke at length about his collection donated to the museum which again was most interesting. There's a small cafe which serves good food too, all in all this place is definitely worth a visit if you've any interest in the military.
