Nestled in beautiful countryside, this modern museum traces the history of the British Army’s Royal Corps of Signals and the story of battlefield communications from the telegraph to cyber warfare and satellites! Learn about this fascinating subject through excellent interactive displays: guide a laser beam, "direction find" the enemy, set up satellite networks, learn about encryption, practice Morse code and more! Adults must bring photo ID as we are located in a military camp. Open 10-5 weekdays and 10-4 at weekends. Adults please bring Photo ID.
An excellent museum giving a fascinating insight into the development of communications with a military role. In addition to the historical artefacts, there is a lot of ‘hands on’ exhibits that might appeal to a younger visitor. Personally I had never realised the role the signals Corp played in the Cold War.

Blandford Fashion Museum’s extensive collection includes costumes and accessories from the 18th century to the late 1970’s. The Museum has a number of exhibition areas that display specific stories of the life and changing shape of fashion from the past. The Museum also has a traditional tea room and small shop
A warm welcome awaits you. Museum was larger than I expected, given Blandford is a relatively small town. Exhibits were organised according to themes such as "Ladies of Dorset" and "Getting the Shape" with clear explanations. This made it far more interesting than just a room full of dresses. It does only cover women's fashion though.
