The Bradwell Bay Military & Science Museum was located in Eastland Meadows Country Park in Bradwell-on-Sea, Essex. Opened in 2017, the museum was founded by James Harvard, a history enthusiast and caravan park owner. It housed a variety of military and aviation exhibits, including notable aircraft like a SEPECAT Jaguar and a Westland Lynx. The collection was particularly focused on British military aviation, showcasing aircraft and other artifacts from different periods.
However, in 2018, the museum closed after its owner, James Harvard, was convicted and jailed for possessing illegal firearms. As a result, the museum’s future became uncertain, and it appears to have remained closed since that time.
