Horsas
At least one of the Bridge Too Far Horsas has been saved – its at Preston Isaac’s Museum at Cobbaton, Devon – well worth a visit.

Great Project for historical reason’s
That is some major project and I salute those for keep history alive and to honor the men who used these wooden death traps in combat. Talk about no protection what so ever as you entered the combat zone. Are any Horsha’s left over from the film “A Bridge Too Far”? From a documentary I saw, the film makers did make a few large scale mockup’s I believe. Good luck to the buliders of this fine project. Thanks for posting this !!!!

whats the deal with this project, i mean if some orginal parts have been used and if the original construction methods have been used the surely this is in fact a real horsa just without the service record.
Either way, it looks great.
best regards, steve
