A Nottinghamshire military museum took delivery of an iconic British tank as part of a special restoration project in November. The Royal Lancers & Nottinghamshire Yeomanry Museum at Thoresby Park, near OIlerton, is the new temporary home of the FV 214 Conqueror — one of the heaviest tanks produced in this country. It was transported to the attraction from the Bovington Tank Museum in Dorset before a painstaking four-hour operation saw it manoeuvred into place on a specially created concrete plinth. Now volunteers at the museum will spend the next few months giving the tank, which saw service between 1955 and 1966, a fresh new look ahead of a special unveiling that is expected to take place next spring.
