About this museum
North Weald's museum in the old station office covers a fighter station that ran from 1916 Zeppelin defence through the Battle of Britain to Norwegian Spitfire wings — three floors, idiosyncratically dense.
April–November; the airfield itself still hosts warbird traffic worth loitering for.
- “This is a charming intimate well stocked little museum and the man on duty there was knowledgeable and passionate about the contents. The Airfield itself is a few minutes drive away from the museum and is not signposted so you need to ask for directions.”— Wendy Meade
- “Great little museum for a short visit. A lot of paraphernalia from the local airfield and the brave men and women who were based here. Staffed by volunteers. Very interesting for a short visit.”— Steven Sher
