Literally just down the road. Don’t miss this quaint little museum of our local involvement in the Battle of Britain.

he Museum is on the site of the former RAF Hawkinge, the nearest Royal Air Force station to enemy-occupied France and only some ten minutes flying time away from the Luftwaffe fighter airfields in the Pas-de-Calais, in addition to which the airfield and surrounding district was subjected to long range cross-Channel shelling from the German shore batteries stationed along the French coast. Not for nothing was the Folkestone area known as “Hellfire Corner”. Despite the passing years today’s visitor can still savour the atmosphere of the airfield’s past with the landmarks and buildings that remain, acting as points of reference, whilst beyond can be seen the English Channel and the French coast.

Possibly the largest collection of bent, burnt and twisted pieces of aircraft aluminium that I have seen. But seriously, it’s fascinating and worth a half day 😊
