Soldiers of oxfordshire museum
Soldiers of Oxfordshire Museum (SOFO Museum) is a military museum in the town of Woodstock, Oxfordshire, England, north of Oxford. The museum is on the edge of the Cotswolds.
The £3.2 million museum was opened by the Princess Royal in 2014. The museum was created to honour soldiers from Oxfordshire regiments and present their history.
Colonel Robin Evelegh, in whose memory the Evelegh Gallery is named, and Colonel Tim May both played a leading role in the idea and development of the Museum.[6]
The SOFO Museum is located in the grounds of the Oxfordshire Museum, with access through the entrance of that museum. Despite the proximity, it is however a separately run museum.
