Lancaster ND523 crash location sought.

Hi folks, please can anyone pin-point the crash site of 7 Sqadron PFF Lancaster ND523?

It was shot down over Frankfurt am Main on 22 March 1944.

The text I have says:
"Intercepted at 17,600 feet by a night-fighter while approaching target and set on fire. managed to clear the target area but within seconds of ordering his crew to bale out, the Lancaster went into a spin and exploded."

I would be really grateful if someone has more details.

regards
Robert
