Description:
The Brooklands Museum tells the story of the development of British motorsport and aviation at the site from 1907.
Brooklands-based aviation companies such as Sopwith, Martinsyde and Vickers played a key role in the development of aviation. Displays and exhibits portray the contribution of the area in both world wars, and also in the post-war years with Vickers and later BAC.
An exhibition on Grand Prix motor racing can also be seen.
The Concorde exhibition is open for limited viewing while the interior is being fitted, and should be fully open in Summer 2006.
Walking distance from train station: approx 15 - 20 mins.
