Superb collection of RAF and American memerabilia. The Curators knowledge of Burtonwood and the air base was delivered brilliantly. Being born 5 miles away from the air base it was the first time I have visited and found it amazing. Keep it going, Great. Well worth giving a donation.

Amazing place to visit! We took family from America as his dad serves in the US airforce based at Burtonwood and it was fascinating all the information that was there and Neil who works there was so lovely and informative. It’s a shame the council didn’t preserve some of the history of RAF Burtonwood but we are so glad the heritage centre is there!

This is a lovely place, quite small in size but packed with lots of artifacts covering the period of time the area was a base for American service men (technicians, not pilots) during ww2 & beyond. If you wish to go do check their opening times beforehand as the opening times are quite short but for those interested in where ww2 aircraft were repaired & maintained and how the locals interacted with Americans based in England this place is very informative as are the staff.

An incredible tribute to the history of RAF Burtonwood and the USAAF during WWII and beginning of the Cold War in the 1950’s. The Centre is packed with memorabilia and the displays have been put together with expertise, care, and attention to detail. The volunteer guides are helpful and knowledgeable. The 12 minute introductory film is a must-see to start your visit. My friend and I spent an afternoon at the Centre as we have an interest in specific people and planes associated with Burtonwood, however it is a treasure for anyone interested in local history of Warrington or WWII action. Well worth a visit.

Fantastic museum with free entry (donations welcomed). Lots of history exhibits on show both indoors and outdoors. Based at the entrance to Gullivers World car park. Highly recommended. Ensure you check opening times as limited and closed on Mondays and Tuesdays too.

Absolutely brilliant. Please support this lovely little museum. Staff are Friendly and knowledgeable. Little gift shop and facilities. Free entry (donations accepted). Make sure you take cash as the don't have a card machine. As it is in the car park of Gullivers World, it's open when they are. Opening time is 2.30.Fabulous displays.

Marvellous small museum. Well worth a visit, some amazing exhibits & information about the massive US base. The huge scale & all the different aspects of manufacturing & repair workshops were out of this world.
