Description
Located in two original Nissen huts which formed part of the communal site for the 329th Bomb Squadron on the airfield, the museums exhibits range from displays of second world war memorabilia to items of aviation archaeology. These include, engines and sections of undercarriage. While you look at the various displays don't forget that we provide refreshments and an area to sit down. The refreshments can be found in hut 2 where a B24 assembly ship still flies over the site.
