    Lovely display of memorabilia and aircraft. Great display of RAF Halton's history. Well worth the visit. Free entry but please give generously. Especially as they are run by volunteers.

    It's amazing just how much history is packed into this small museum. I didn't have as much time as I would've liked to properly look at everything but I would highly recommend it and would definitely visit again if the opportunity arises.

    Lovely little museum, run by a very knowledgeable gentleman. We visited here with our teenage son. Francis showed us round and shared lots of fascinating facts about the history of the RAF and RAF Halton. You can get up close to everything and also handle certain objects. There is also a separate building with old and new flight simulators which my son could try out. We were given a personal tour of that part by another very helpful and informative gentleman. I would definitely recommend this museum. You have to email in advance to book your visit and then you are met and shown around in your group. A fascinating place. Well worth a visit.

    Excellent museum illustrating RAF Halton's historic role delivering vital training in aircraft engineering, dentistry and nursing. Unique 'hands on' displays of aviation, engineering and weapons plus the life of aircraft apprentices through the years.

    Run by volunteers, this although small, is an amazing little museum dedicated to RAF Halton and all the apprentices that have pasted though the gates. We'll worth a visit.
