An aircraft wing assembly (31) is disclosed. The aircraft wing assembly (31) comprises a wing tip device (11) rotatable about a hinge axis (H) between a flight configuration and a ground configuration and a wing tip device actuation system (20) comprising a bell crank (21) and a linear actuator (23). The bell crank (21) is rotatably mounted to the aircraft wing assembly (31) and is rotatable about a bell crank axis (C) which is offset from the hinge axis (H). The linear actuator (23) is operable to rotate the bell crank (21) about the bell crank axis (C) to thereby move the wing tip device (11) about the hinge axis (H), between the flight configuration and the ground configuration.
