Had an amazing visit to the Cheshire Military Museum where my family could not have been made more welcome. We had arranged to donate the medal collection of my Great Uncle Major A J Cooper, including an Air Force Cross, the first ever awarded to an Army glider pilot. The staff had obviously gone to an enormous amount of effort researching their archives about him and my Great Grandfather, both of whom served in the Cheshire regiment. It was amazing to see photographs and newspaper articles about them both, including a caricature of my Great Grandfather dated 1895. My family can not thank the wonderful staff enough for everything they have done.

What a lovely visit to the colourful Military Museum at Chester. We did get some concessions with being OAPs and having young grandchildren. The staff were very informative captivating our youngsters with all sorts of stories. Well worth the visit and we all enjoyed the experience.

Excellent museum telling the story of a proud county regiment through the ages. Particularly magnificent medal collection including several VC’s and of particular note the Scinde campaign section under that remarkable General Sir Charles James Napier and the WW1 and WW2 period inc a pen used during the surrender of the Japanese forces. Well worth a visit and to put several hours aside.

A highly enjoyable visit to Cheshire Military Museum by a group from Chester Business Club on 8/11/23. Friendly informative staff. Very interesting artefacts on display. I particularly enjoyed walking through time: a well organised collection that lead me from the creation of the Cheshire Military regiment, through the wars, through The Troubles, to present day. There’s lots to see here - give yourself plenty of time to browse through these poignant moments in history brought to life in this display. A very special museum in Chester - highly recommended for all ages. I’ll definitely be going again soon with my family.
