Although the museum is basically a rural life museum with many exhibits relating to farming, country life, trades and professions within a 25 mile radius of Pitstone, it has many other interesting exhibits, including three model railways, a 37hp Crossley gas engine, stationary engines, vintage wirelesses, photographic and electrical apparatus and a WW2 military aviation room. Highlight of this room is a full size reconstruction of a section of a wartime Avro Lancaster Bomber.
