Notably, Field Marshal Montgomery’s D-Day Rolls-Royce, a despatch rider’s motorbike and Napoleon’s field bakery are all on display.
The museum, which was purpose-built and opened by the Princess Royal in 2021, also features a current display of photographs of army athletes who have participated in the Olympic Games over the years.
The museum provides free entrance, ample parking and a snack bar, making it a convenient and cost-effective day out.
