Why not also try the Surbiton library for any newspaper archives or books about the War which might have details? Or a local history society? As you say, difficult to have more than one crash in your street, even if on a flight path!!

Thanks Icare9. Was it touch with the Surrey Comet some years back. They had no record of anything. They did say that its unlikely to have been reported, did'nt want to give the Germans cause to applaud. The library is a good idea though.

Hello Engleworth,

Usually a date is the key factor in research with regard to an incident. Somehow this must have been reported by the local air raid precautions department, police, fire arms etc. I guess you already may have tried to figure out this?

Good luck!
