new vehicle conservation unit at Bovington ,
The AFV ASSOCIATION was formed in 1964 to support the thoughts and research of all those interested in Armored Fighting Vehicles and related topics, such as AFV drawings. The emphasis has always been on sharing information and communicating with other members of similar interests; e.g. German armor, Japanese AFVs, or whatever.

Dennis, I will be visiting Bovington twice in late June, and I hope that the conservation centre will be open to the public. Are we able to walk through the vehicles or do we have to stay a bit far away from them? I'd like to try to get some of the Shermans serial numbers...

Hi Be very careful with time,the unit is only open for 1hour per day,yes that's right one hour per day.from 2 pm until 3 pm. There is only one entrance That leads you upstairs to a small viewing platform. I asked about access to floor space ,but no way with "health and safety" Also the whole shed is very dark Dennis
