The Starfighter and Lightnings can be found at Fen Lane in Grainthorpe, Lincs. It’s a private farm but a knock on the door usually results in permission to wander around. Some pics from there below

Thanks Deank. I have checked this web site. There is a lot of information but no pics from the promenade site.

Can any one give informatin about the Lightnings and Starfighter that are some where in the Grimsby area (farm?). I have looked at a lot of web sites but most seem to be out of date. Its not far for me and would like to visit maybe get involved.

Didnt his museum close up and some of its aircraft dispersed?

Found this thread which confirms it has closed – shame I never managed to get there.

In 1981 the Bomber County Museum (formally known as The Humberside Preservation Society) moved from Goxhill to The Leisure Park, south promenade, Cleethorpes. I remember visiting this site while on family holidays. I some where have a photograph of me sat on what I think from memorey was a vampire.
I have googled and been on the web site, I have found a lot hisory but no photographs.

Any one ?

Go to http://website.lineone.net/~bcam/ click on ‘Our Aircraft’, then click on whichever aircraft you want to view.

I remember going to this museum when it was at Elsham Hall and when it was at the old zoo site in Cleethorpes – never been to it’s current site in Hemswell though – I must add it to my list.
