To further my research for the World War 2 period elements proejct, I visited Shuttleworth Musuem to get a further understanding of what life would have been like. Eventhough Shuttleworth is orientated towards planes and cars I was able to see how much has changed through the different generations and more importantly through the second World War.
This private collection was begun by Richard Shuttleworth. Pilot, racing driver, self-taught mechanic and heir to the estate, he rescued old aircraft and vehicles, bringing them back to Old Warden Park to restore. After his death in 1940, flying for the RAF, his mother Dorothy continued adding to the collection.
