Cool, my local aircraft museum. The square-windowed Comet was rotting in the open for many years but (as the article notes) has been restored. They also have a Comet flight deck which you can walk around. It has 5 seats on the flight deck (it really is huge!), including a flight engineer and a navigator.
Edit: flight deck photo on Wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/De_Havilland_Comet#/media/File:DeHavillandCometCockpit.jpg https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/De_Havilland_Comet#/media/File...
Other highlights of the museum are a fully restored Mosquito, and a Chipmunk (which will be nostalgic for RAF servicemen and cadets of a certain age).
