Monmouth Royal Engineers Museum

I've just discovered this very interesting little museum.

I however also discovered that the weapons that I used are museum pieces (as I am becoming)

The Museum is small but packed with many things. Worth a visit if you have any military connections. FL2 XS SD4 Auto 2010 2012-2017 (21k - 91k miles) (MY2011)
FL2 Metropolis SD4 Auto 2014 2017- (16k - 82k+ miles) (MY2015)

Looks interesting, any shops around so I can pack SWMBO off to. Smile

And if anyone is in Kent this summer then here's the big one. https://www.re-museum.co.uk/
remember Engineers are Front line troops. Thumbs Up

Monmouth is a market town and is worth a visit in its own right. My wife loves it and always asked to visit whenever we are near.
Easy to get to as it is just off one of South Wales excellent (nearly) empty dual carriageways. A40.

The whole area has beautiful scenery, and easy, quick, travel.
