Double check the place you want to visit is on the list of properties that accepts RM cards - having said that, I haven't found one that doesn't!

It should give free entry for up to two adults and six children. One place I visited also gave us 15% off in the gift shop (non-food and drink).

Yeah we went to Stonehenge, booked in advance and just showed our RM ID. Bah me and the mrs wanted to visit the childhood homes of Lennon and McCartney, bit pricey at 23 quid each but its national trust, just double checking it's on English Heritage we get the freebies with isn't it?

I lost my ID badge during the summer, have repeatedly asked for another one but no lucky. Was hoping just a wage slip and my normal ID might work ;-)

Just found the up to date list of properties http://www.english-heritage.org.uk/cont ... 014-16.pdf" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

It is only English Heritage, National Trust is not included. Stonehenge is owned by the Crown and managed by English Heritage, but is on National Trust land so members of both get free admission.

It may be worth emailing EH about the ID required http://www.english-heritage.org.uk/supp ... embership/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;

Credit to the company when it's due, this is a damn fine deal with English Heritage. A good day out for very little cost, more of the same in 2016 for me and mine.

Say hello, say you are a Corporate Member and flash your ID card.
Don't turn up with just your RM trainers on and expect to get in - although I was told it has worked.
