Avro Heritage Museum
Building 56, Chester Road, Woodford Aerodrome, Woodford, SK7 1QS · Stockport
Set on the historic Woodford Aerodrome where real Lancaster bombers were built and tested, this museum lets visitors walk through a replica Lancaster, sit in real aircraft cockpits and experience a VR Berlin Blitz raid. Open Friday to Sunday, it's a slightly off-the-beaten-track gem for families with an interest in aviation or Second World War history. Under-11s get in free; cockpit access costs a small supplement.
