It's probably gone now, but rather bizarrely there was a harrier jump jet parked on a patch of green grass when I was last there some years ago. Sort of "dumped, pending working out how to deal with it" which made me feel like nobody runs the place and everyone runs the place. "Joe said I could" -"oh OK put it over there then"
Another thing about the place is that modern archeology doesn't favour restoration of everything. Limited amounts of structural change happen. So a lot of the site looks like dismal ww2 badly poured concrete, not well looked after. Since GCHQ occupied the space for some time, some of it is probably post war, and historically relevant to different stories.
- rjmunro 2y agoThere was a whole bunch of random historical stuff, like a cinema museum with a collection of old projectors and a model railway at one point. It was really fun. Those had all gone last time I was there. Also when I was last there, The National Museum Of Computing had free parking, but Bletchley Park museum charged for their car park, even though it is right next door. You could park at the computing museum car park and visit either or both.
