What you can see:

Expect to see the largest collection of aero engines in the country, ranging from World War I era piston engines, the famous Merlin, right up to modern day jet engines. The collection also includes examples across the Rolls-Royce product range including marine and industrial applications.

We hope to be joined by a number of enthusiasts who will be displaying their vintage cars, some of which hark back to the early days of Rolls-Royce and the start of the motor car era. There are examples of engines and motor cars from distinguished names such as Armstrong Siddeley and Napier, whose companies became part of the Rolls-Royce group in their latter years.

Children are welcome, but must be accompanied by an adult at all times.
