Orkney
Flotta Heritage Centre & Museum 2027
The centre is an excellent introduction to this small island in Scapa Flow and its role in some of Orkney's most important historical moments of the 20th century. The renovated 1940s cottage complements the numerous wartime sites in Flotta and, along with the barn next door, includes memorabilia covering two World Wars, when Orkney was home to the Royal Navy's Grand Fleet.
