About HMS Macaw

This website has been established to record the history of HMS Macaw in the many forms it has taken over the years and also to record the memories of those that served there.

We have ambitious plans to restore HMS Macaw to the appearance it would have had as a FAA Station during WW2 and to transfer our Fleet and Fleet Air Arm collections to this site.

We will also have an extensive Home Front display including Prefab bungalows, aircraft, a collection of military vehicles and artillery pieces to link with the work of the Royal Artillery at this site and its work at the nearby Experimental Proving Range at Eskmeals.

Probably the largest independent collection of Militaria in the UK will be displayed here.

We also wish to open up the Cadet accommodation units to be able to offer additional facilities in the Lake District.

The local Royal Naval Association will also make HMS Macaw its HQ.

To also make HMS Macaw a valuable community resource once again.
