Over four floors we tell the stories of the our Regimental history through word, photographs, uniforms, weapons, artefacts, silverware and a magnificent display of medals. We also have Hitler's Desk, retrieved from Berlin at the end of World War II, and a replica World War 1 dugout with bunk room - complete with smells! Go on our roof too - you see for miles!
We offer some children's activities including a trail, brass rubbing, colouring and dressing-up. There will be further activities during the school holidays when the Curator will also give talks to adults.
We have a small car park but are next to the large Top O' Town Car park.
