With military history on display, from Agincourt to the present day, including Monty’s D-Day Rolls Royce, a range of military horse-drawn and motorised logistic vehicles, uniforms, weapons, medals and much more; this fascinating and unique museum gives visitors an insight into how the British Army was moved, supplied and sustained over the centuries.

4 months agoIt is a fascinating museum that reflects the superb effort that various corps have made in keeping our armies fed, clothed, and moving over the last few hundred or so years. It is a really interesting collection that spans almost every campaign the British Army has been involved in.

7 months agoIt was a small, but very interesting museum, and as it was free entry, no complaints at all. There were a couple of interactive displays and a whole room designated to medals. I learnt some interesting facts too.

9 months agoIt is an excellent museum building and well worth the visit. There are plenty for children to interact with. The history of RLC is laid out in a timeline with good graphics and excellent exhibits to look at. The medal rooms are outstanding, with friendly staff.

a year agoI visited here with a group of friends one quiet Saturday. We chose this museum as some of our fathers served in one of its predecessors, the Royal Army Service Corps, during WW2. I call it a ‘hidden gem’ because it is located on its own at Worthy Down some 6 miles north from the main local British Army museums in Winchester. The exhibits are in a modern building which has ample free parking and a cafe. Covering the varied history Royal Logistics Corps (RLC), the numerous exhibits are displayed chronologically with plenty of explanatory material. Amongst the vehicles, uniforms and weapons is the most amazing display of military medals I have ever seen. There were very knowledgeable staff members and volunteers on hand to provide detailed explanations; being ex-military ourselves we were given access to a couple of areas not normally open to the public. We had a thoroughly enjoyable day and give the museum our highest recommendation for anyone with an interest in military history.

6 months agoA well maintained and laid out museum of the history of the Royal Logistic Corp. A lot more than I expected to see. We booked a group visit and the host was welcoming and very knowledgeable. As a logistician myself I can appreciate the effort that has been put into creating a blended environment for younger children as well as adults to learn about what is a long and interesting history. Update 07 Aug 24 - I revisited the museum today with my 8yo daughter and her friend. The introduction of the duck hunt brought much joy as did many of the interactive displays. Then finally they made their own parachutes and tested them. This caught their interest so much that when they saw the parachute sets in the gift shop they begged me for them and spent the afternoon throwing them out of the bathroom window before running down to pick it up and go again 🥰
