A Hidden Gem in Bomber County
Dedicated to preserving the memory of all the men and women that flew with or supported 106 Squadron RAF Bomber Command at RAF Metheringham in WW2. #LestWeForget.

Metheringham Airfield was operational between November 1943 and the Spring of 1946. It was home to 106 Sqn RAF during the whole of this period and in the autumn of 1944 they were joined by 1690 Bomber Defence Training Flight. It was also a main staging post for the repatriation of American wounded. The Museum here today is on what was part of the communal area of the airfield. For more information, please click on the links below to navigate your way around the website.

Metheringham Airfield Visitor Centre is an accredited museum. It is a registered charity (No. 1194347) run by volunteers.

Please note that the museum is located on a working farm which is privately owned.

We would ask you to be respectful of that and in particular keep to the signed speed limit at all times.
