About
Stow Maries Great War Aerodrome had been decommissioned by the outbreak of World War 2 - it had reverted to its time-honoured role as a farm. This year, on Armed Forces Day, we will be celebrating the astonishing work of the Armed Forces in that conflict as well as the activities of the Home Front on Flambirds Farm.
With a range of Living Historians and vehicles, you will get a real taste of life in the county during wartime.
Young people can take part in the Evacuaees Experience. Booked in advance, they will get a chance to feel what life was like for those young people, shifted from home to the wilds of Essex to escape the War. (Tickets to be booked in advance, £5 for one child under 11 and accompanying adult.)
Our Airmen's Mess will be offering a chance to dodge the Ration Book with a vintage Cream Tea. Served on period china, sat at a white clothed-table, you can forget the War for a little while. (Tickets to be booked in advance, £12 per person.)
