I’ve been doing a little digging and have come up with some more plane crash sites in the Lakes;
Skiddaw – fragments of a wellington bomber crashed in December 1942 at NY250 285, also a B17 crashed near Randal Crag in 1934 at NY256 297
Scafell there are remains of two hurricanes crashed in 1941 at NY209 049 and NY 211 049. There’s also a Dominie that crashed in 1947 close to Broad Crag at NY219 078
Coniston Old Man – as posted above by Sue
I appreciate that we shouldn’t all rush out to the exact spots listed above, but if you are walking in the area, than spotting plane wreckage give an added purpose to any walk. Let me know if any of you find the sites.
Regards,
Paul
