We are delighted to announce that the Stratford Armouries Museum is home to exhibits from the Wellington Aviation Museum, formerly housed at Moreton-in-Marsh, Gloucestershire. The fascinating exhibits range from an entire Wellington Bomber tail piece - one of only two in existence as well as a large collection of aircraft parts, engines, military uniform and weaponry. What a better place to house this unique collection than on the site of the WW2 station RAF Snitterfield.

A fantastic learning experience for the young and a trip down memory lane for the elders.
