Hi Cornishboy

I visited this place a few years ago, great place! real treasure trove and how a museum should be....no daft computerised screens just propper smelly heavy exhibits. Ild recommend anyone interested in ww2 militaria to go.

Cheers, must get down there agian sometime.

Hi Reg,yeah its nice to see pieces how they would have been oily and covered in mud.As far as i know all the vehicles are road worthy.I thought it was a realy good find!!

I can highly recommend it to. The owner, Preston Issacs is a friend of mine.

Cheers, Ade.

Been to it a couple of times. Can thoroughly recommend it as a day out.
Do they still have the Churchill tank there?

[Adrian Stevenson]

Yes, it is still there as far as I know.

Cheers, Ade.
