Hi,

I believe that Ogley´s Biggin Hill books contain the map.
I will check it after return from office.

The Imperial War Museum has the original map used for plotting hits, and I believe they have smaller scale versions available to the public.

Hope this helps,

Hi Gary

My book entitled 'Diver! Diver! Diver! is due to be published by Grub Street in July. An attempt has been made to list all fighter claims against the V-1 and it should include such maps as those in which you are interested.

Cheers
Brian

Gary,

The book Biggin on the Bump by Ogley contains a map of Kent where Doodle Bugs crashed in Summer 1944.
If you want a scan contact me at fairlop AT quick.cz please.

See Vol 3 of After the Battle's The Blitz Then and Now: the map on p. 418 shows where 5,232 V1 bombs came down (strikes or destroyed en route); the map on p. 463 shows where 1,115 V2 rockets struck the UK.
