An aircraft landing gear assembly 1 comprises a wheel 10, a disc brake 20 comprising one or more carbon discs 21, 22 and a filter 30. The disc brake is operable to inhibit rotation of the wheel 10 during a braking event thereby resulting in the formation of brake dust from the one or more discs 21, 22. The filter 30 is positioned relative to the disc brake 20 such that air flows over the one or more discs 21,22, through the filter 30 and away from the assembly 1, wherein the filter 30 is configured to separate and remove at least part of the brake dust from the air and while allowing the air to pass. A forced convection device arranged to drive the flow of air over the one or more discs and through the filter into a dust collector, such as void 35, detached from the filter 30. The filter 30 is configured to capture particulate matter having a size less than or equal to 50 microns.
