Bressingham Steam and Gardens, Steam museum and gardens in Norfolk, England.
Bressingham maintains several narrow gauge railways across its grounds, with steam engines operating through gardens filled with perennial plants and flowerbeds.
Alan Bloom established the gardens in 1946 after relocating from Cambridgeshire, combining his nursery expertise with his interest in steam locomotive preservation.
The museum collection includes the national assembly of Dad's Army vehicles displayed within a recreation of Walmington-on-Sea's High Street setting.
Visitors can access the site daily from March through November, with facilities including parking spaces, refreshment areas, and complete wheelchair accessibility.
The Frederick Savage carousel from 1897 functions as an operational exhibit, allowing guests to experience authentic Victorian fairground entertainment.
