A horde of visitors flocked to a war museum in Norfolk to celebrate its anniversaries.

Last Sunday, Langham Dome, an important anti-aircraft gunnery training facility during the Second World War, pulled a crowd of more than a thousand.

It was a landmark occasion, marking 10 years since its opening to the public.

Of the originally 46 such training domes constructed, only six still stand with Langham Dome the only one renovated and accessible to visitors.

In 2014, having raised £750,000, the museum was ready for unveiling.

Langham Dome now basks in the distinction of being one of the youngest Scheduled Ancient Monuments in the United Kingdom.

Notable commemorations during this significant event included the reopening of RAF Langham as an airfield, and the arrival of the Australian and New Zealand military, the Anzacs, with their 455 and 489 Beaufighter Squadrons.

Professionals television star Martin Shaw, an avid aviator, was at the event and said: “I feel deeply honoured to be here.

"It is 80 years ago that the Anzacs arrived here at Langham, and it’s their courage and sacrifice that we honour.“

The highlight of the event was the display by the Hanna Spitfire, flown by esteemed pilot Brian Smith.

Other forms of entertainment included a performance by a 1940's DJ, live music, speeches, military displays, vintage stalls and a miniature fairground for children.

However, amid the liveliness, the event bore a sombre note, commemorating the 155 individuals who lost their lives at RAF Langham, either in air operations or ground incidents.

The Friends of Langham Dome charity strives to preserve the monument in memory of the men and women who sacrificed their lives.
