Abstract
The Materialising the Cold War project will soon end. It has been a busy, productive three years, during which our research raised as many questions as it answered – not least because the developing global context altered the definitional lens on ‘Cold War’ topics. Reflecting on the ambitions and outcomes of our project, the team took one last fieldtrip to two Cold War heritage sites in York: the Yorkshire Air Museum and the York Cold War Bunker. Here, inspired by the day, Jessica Douthwaite records a few final thoughts on Cold War museology.
