This wonderful museum is partly located in a Victorian water pumping station, built in 1898, which was connected to the New River, but large parts of its extensive collection are to be found outside. It is owned and operated by the Enfield and District Veteran Vehicle Trust, who took over the site in the 1980s. The history can be seen at www.whitewebbsmuseum.co.uk/history An idea of the exhibits can be seen at www.whitewebbsmuseum.co.uk/exhibits The Anderson Air Raid Shelter was made of corrugated metal and half buried in the earth and covered with soil.
