Tettenhall Transport Heritage Centre — Attraction in Wolverhampton

“Unexpected”, was what I heard from a mother and daughter who were coming out of the exit, and that’s exactly how I would have described it too.

We came in with a toddler and dog, and were welcomed with open arms. It’s free entry, and takes cash donations. The staff were wonderful, encouraging my niece to sit in all of the cockpits (any that have steps are accessible). There were Sunbeam bicycles, WWII planes, model train sets. It’s amazing how much stuff they’ve managed to pack into here.

A delightful local free to enter museum of wartime paraphernalia, run by interesting volunteers. There's a cafe by the old Tettenhall railway, now a pedestrian walkway and cycle route. Back here again in September 2024. Just as good and supported today by the Home Guard! Such interesting people and great stories. A 1958 Austin A30, electric tuc-tuc, a French Resistance lady and jeeps with guns (ideal for today's traffic). Cafe is great. Only open...
