Martlesham Heath Control Tower Museum is hosting a Special Open Day on Sunday 8th Sept: “Planes, Flames and Automobiles!”

Come and join us for a great day out – watch and listen to the roar of Mabel the Merlin engine that once powered the fighters that flew here during WW2. Enjoy the songs of those war time years, see the classic and Military vehicles, plus stalls, food and drink, dancing.

Explore our museum, bunker and Anderson Shelter. We have some games for children, and older children… and other novel attractions – and a large collection of Vintage and veteran Civil and military vehicles.

Entry to the Event and Museum is FREE – but we hope you will give generously to help us maintain and improve our (recently Repainted) Museum.

We have a Grand Raffle – with a top prize of £100 – and other fascinating prizes…
