This modern bowling alley also has a public bar and fast food restaurant incorporated within this modern entertainment complex.
It was built in early 1990s on the site of a former airfield hanger that was previously part of the airfield which closed in 1963. Prototype testing was undertaken here in the 1920s and 30s. Aircraft tested here by RAF during that time included both the Hurricane and the Spitfire. For more details see the Martlesham Heath Control Tower Museum for more details.
