Was very interesting ended up talking to 2 very nice volunteers who gave me and my friend some very interesting history about all the artifacts in the building... read more and about how the museu

  This museum while small is of great interest to ww2 enthusiasts and aircraft fans alike, unlike the sterile world of the more main stream museums, wings has managed to capture... read more the history of ww2 in a fascinating way. A must not miss visit. The guys that help run the museum are happy helpful and very experienced. Feel immersed in the history and climb on board a real dc3 from ww2 and a movie prop from band of brothers!! Well done guys fan bloody tastic!

  Not a great deal to see but military enthusiast would no doubt find much of interest but appears to be a lot more exhibits yet to be shown and not... read more ready yet

  A really informative and moving collection of artefacts, organised into themed displays. None of the polish of the bigger museums and all the bette

  Found almost by accident (a leaflet at another site) and decided to take a chance although wasn't sure what to expect - whether there was enough to see. We... read more certainly were not disappointed. The exhibits were accompanied by plenty of information and often accompanied by information about those involved, not just those who gave their lives but those who survived. While looking at a restored aeroplane is great, being able to see the salvaged aircraft and other items makes it all the more interesting. A great find.

  My partner and I have spoken for years about visiting “Wings”, as we live in the vicinity.

So, we got there on a warm and sunny morning. We... read more were almost the only people there, but paid our entry fee of £8.00 each, and went in.

I guess this museum is really about WW2 Memorabilia, and for enthusiasts for this sort of exhibition.

We do get that almost everything that we saw was connected with the supreme sacrifice by many many servicemen, and therefore this review recognises the passion of the individuals who have been instrumental in creating it. However, our expectations were for a Historical Museum displaying WW2 aircraft, rather than just artefacts from sites of shot down aircraft.

If I’d known what we would actually see, I could have made a better and more informed choice, but I do feel that the website wasn’t fully accurate in providing information on the actual content.

So, all in all our experience was a little disappointing. However I can understand that it has quite a specialised appeal for certain people, and in particular, those who are passionate enthusiasts. And, I think more needs to be done to provide

Finally, I must say that it was nevertheless of interest and it increased our knowledge, but our expectations were for rather more exhibits of whole aircraft.

  Visited on 1 November with our 6 and 9 year. The place is full of great exhibits and really worth a visit. Our kids loved it and would have spent... read more ages there if they could! Well worth a visit.

  Great Museum, very helpful and knowledgable Staff. lots of exhibits and stories to read some very moving to read. if you are interested in the Battle of Britain... read more or aircraft archeology this museum is a must.

  First we have to say that the customer service was warm and friendly.

The museum has a lot of interesting artefacts on display and will need a second... read more visit to take in all the well-documented history it has on display. It was surprising to see the size of the aircraft's.

  Such a lovely place to visit. My kids loved the stories and interaction with staff. It is not massive but we spent two hours having lot

  Great little museum. It doesn't have a load of planes like some air museums but it does have a lot of interesting stories. You need to take time... read more to read the captions to get the most out of it. Enthusiastic staff. The radio shack didn't look interesting at first but some of the working exhibits mad it worth a visit.

  My boys loved it. Fascinating artifacts. Very welcoming man who shared his passion and made us very interested too

  Made a visit to this very good museum on the 25th June, and was made very welcome by the volunteers and owners.

Lots of artifacts to see with... read more some great stories, of very brave men.

I can highly recommend a visit. It has easy access and is well

  We loved this museum! Fascinating mix of war time objects and salvaged planes. Really interesting stories told of the aircraft and war time and lives tragically ended too soon.

  There is so much to see and explore at this well run museum that you really cannot do it in one visit. We have been twice now and plan... read more to go many more times.

  a very warm welcome from volunteers at the museum. enormous amount of material and authentic exhibits. the personal stories with medals and photos of actual people from the war... read more service was so touching and inf

  Absolutely amazing

  I went today with my son ( loves war/aviation stuff ) my dad ( also an aviation enthusiast ) and my mum. Whilst I popped to the toilets the kind... read more gentlemen were sorting out a dodgy wheel on my dad's walker. The museum is in a hangar and can get a tad warm when the sun is out but there was air coming in from the door. The museum has so much in it that you don't know what to look at first. There's a great array of war artifacts and it's quite touching seeing some of the stories. The gentleman were very helpful and informative. I would recommend here for anyone with even a slight interest in World war and or aviation.

  Very interesting visit, really brought home to us the reality of WW2 being fought in the skies over this country and Europe. The personal stories of those heroes made it... read more very moving.

  This is a fascinating museum, with exhibits displayed as they were found, not repaired. It puts another aspect on the awful times of war.
A very interesting exhibit is photos... read more and drawings from one of the camps. They are not pleasant to look at, considering the subject matter, but look at them we must, to understand a little what went on.
Lovely volunteers to chat to too.

  What a little gem this place is ! we called in on our route doing the London to Brighton classic car rally , don't be put off by the... read more outer appearances ( it's on a farm ) this place is amazing and the volunteer staff are lovely. The exhibits are honest examples of war time . I highly recommend a stroll around this packed museum.

  Went here with my father and son. There was a wide variety of artifacts and memorabilia on display to keep us all interested. My son particularly enjoyed sitting in the... read more cockpit of the training plane. The highlights were the remains of the Russian & Japanese aircraft. We all enjoyed the visit - it would be great if a guide book were available!

  Had a great visit to Wings Museum yesterday, lots of Aviation related exhibits, recovered wrecks all with intresting and personal stories to give you the background. Went to see the... read more excavated wreck of my Fathers Lancaster Bomber and was surprised at how much information there was..staff very helpful and friendly.

  We had often driven past this museum so decided to visit. It was really interesting and the 2 volunteers on duty were really friendly and knowledgeable. There are so many... read more artefacts including from planes that were shot down or crashed and these have come from various countries. There is also a section on the home guard and various life stories of different service men. If you are even a little bit interested in the 2nd world war this is definitely a place you should visit. The only thing I would say is if you visit in the winter wrap up warm as the museum is in an outbuilding and there is no heating so it was a bit cold.

  This a thoroughly absorbing and interesting place to visit.
There's a great deal to take in, so give yourselves plenty of time.
My Wife was very taken with the navigation... read more map in the Dakota.
Will recommend to all!

  Second visit to this amazing museum and collection of ww2 artefacts. Loved going inside the Dakota and the fact it was a prop from Band of Brothers is amazing. ... read more /> So much to see and learn. Love this museum.

  Have seen the signs for this museum for many years so was curious to check it out. It is jam-packed with exhibits and while planes are the main feature, there... read more was also a lot of other things related to WW2 to see. Volunteers are very knowledgeable and friendly. Good value for money and worth the visit

  A building full of STUFF. All of which has obviously been lovingly curated as every oily bit of metal and every odd thing has been researched, identified and explained. The... read more staff are volunteers who know what they are caring for. If you read every label you would be here for days. The amount of exhibits in the space available means it is a jumbled treasure trove of military equipment. I noted one of the staff members giving special attention to a young lad who was probably autistic ( my daughter is ) and appeared tuned into the boy's need to see and touch. It’s that attention to sharing their work’ that led my brother in law and me to start sorting out my deceased father in law’s pilots books and shoulder flashes for donation to people who know and care about history.
