Interesting history of the war time local air training school here in Moreton-in-Marsh
Within part of an old Victorian school building in Moreton-in-Marsh it’s a treasure trove of RAF memorabilia and aviation art. The extensive private collection was the result of one man’s passion and pride at having served in the Royal Air Force. It has become an invaluable record of how the second World War impacted upon a small market town such as the ‘Wings for Victory’ appeal, local prisoner of war camps and the encampment of USA’s Super Sixth Armoured Division prior to the D Day landings. Today visitors come from around the world, many of whom have relatives that were trained at Moreton or similar bases.
