Hurn is the location of Bournemouth Airport originally RAF Station Hurn RAF Hirn. An important airfield dating to the Second world war. The village was served by Hurn railway station from 1863 to 1935, and the station building and platform are extant. They are now used as the Avon Causeway Hotel.
Hurn is listed in the Domesday Book as “Herne” and was later known in the 13th century as Hyrne and in the 14th century as Hurne. The name is derived from the old English “hyrne”, which means a disused part of a field or the land sectioned by an oxbow lake.
We’re different to many other museums and offer a “hands-on” experience. Visitors of all ages are encouraged to climb into the cockpits of many of our Aircraft. Imagine what it is like to be a pilot by handling the controls and fly away to wherever your imagination desires. We also hold very old aircraft plus World War engines one of which only 7 were made.
All Aircraft that you can access will be available during this investigation, until dusk then walking around the Aircraft and transport vehicles only.
There are many cabins to investigate with Aircraft models and books. With an old ejector seat in one. There are three fire engines two can be accessed for this investigation. The cafe will be open for you to purchase tea, coffee, cool drinks and snacks .
It is purely an out door investigation.
This museum has never been investigated before. The Aircraft hold secrets with energy running through the metalwork. Many of our devices went off and the dualport had a few words and what sounded like work being done on Aircraft. The hexcom came out with aggression, Joe, sentence, luck, oar and many more words during our site visit. One fire engine in particular was very active with spirits. Join us to uncover what secrets the Aircraft and the location have been hiding for many years.
