About the museum

The collection reflects the history of military communications from the Crimea to the present day with displays on the Great War, the Second World War, Korea, the Falklands and the Gulf War. There is reference to the activities of the Special Operations Executive (SOE), the ATS, Long Range Desert Group and SAS Signals featuring vehicles, motorbikes, uniforms, medals, equipment, memorabilia and trench art.  It addresses the history of codes and code breaking. The museum has a variety of excellent interactive displays with competitions and “fun trails” to appeal to the younger visitor.  The Corps library and archive are on-site and may be viewed by appointment.  Research facilities are available.
