Wellington X3220 lost on July 16th 1941

Hi all
Wellington X3220 (BL-H) of 40 Squadron crashed returning from a raid on Hamburg on the 16th July 1941.
Does anyone have any pictures showing this aircraft?
The crash site was excavated in 1984, does anyone have pictures or more information on what was recovered?
I require some info to help me finish an article I have been working on about a pre war accident in London.
Many thanks in advance
Gerry

You have posted this item around quite a bit !
I was a member of the team from the Flixton Air Museum who dug the crash site of X3220 at West Caister, Norfolk, between 1982 and 1984. I have quite a few pictures of the items recovered if you let me have an e-mail address/PM to respond to.
