Members of the public will have the chance to see inside a former Norfolk military base.
The station headquarters (SHQ) building at RAF West Raynham, which was operated by Bomber Command during the Second World War, is currently being converted into a visitors centre.
And Veterans Central, the charity carrying out the work, is hosting an open day at the site on Sunday, July 7.
During the event, which is free to enter, there will be guided tours of the SHQ, an aircraft fly-by, displays of military vehicles and classic cars, live music and a children's fun area, as well as a craft fair, book and clothes sale.

Visitors will also get to see aviation and local history museum displays and enjoy a bomber command virtual reality experience.
The SHQ cafe will be open serving food and hot and cold drinks, as well as a barbecue and bar.
A spokesperson for Veterans Central said: "The activities and open day is planned to be informative and entertaining for visitors from families with young children to those with an interest in military and RAF history, or just the plain curious."
The site closed in 1994 and the SHQ was left abandoned.
Under the plans, it is being restored so it can host a centre for people to visit and learn more about its past.

RAF West Raynham, located in the Norfolk countryside between Fakenham, King’s Lynn and Swaffham, opened in 1939 and was operated by Bomber Command during the Second World War.
A total of 86 of its aircraft were lost during the conflict.
It later became a key Cold War base, housing fighters as well as air defence missiles.
Since its closure, the site has become derelict and the headquarters covered in weeds, presenting a challenge for those restoring it.
