A new exhibition launches this week on a remote National Trust property off the coast of Suffolk. Orford Ness is\u00a0now a National Nature Reserve, but for\u00a0most of the 20th Century it\u00a0was used as a Top Secret, military, test site.<\/p>\n

\"The<\/a><\/p>\n

Ugly Studios have been working with National Trust for the last few years, slowly updating the interpretation across the site. This new exhibition, ‘Island of Secrets’, gives\u00a0the visitor an overview of the military occupation, from experiments with early flying machines during World War One, through to testing Britain’s Cold War Nuclear Bombs.<\/p>\n

\"The<\/a><\/p>\n

Alongside printed panels there are large objects, a model of one of the former laboratories and a section about the early\u00a0Radar experiments that took place there. In keeping with the site’s experimental past visitors can also use their mobile phones to log onto a secret, local website.\u00a0Once connected\u00a0they can watch and listen to interviews conducted with\u00a0former staff members that add another intriguing layer to the story.<\/p>\n

\"The<\/a><\/p>\n

This remote place\u00a0is only accessible by ferry from the mainland with a limited\u00a0number of visitors allowed across each day. It is a truly unique place with a unique story and an atmosphere all of its own. For more information about visiting Orford Ness go to National Trust’s webpages<\/a>.<\/p>\n
