Thanks again Chris

[Peter Cornwell]

The machine crashed in a field occupied by Mr J. Fawcett at Hart's Farm, adjoining Everton Nurseries, and there was a violent explosion as it hit the ground. Its wreckage was strewn over an area of 200 yards, while the hood of its cabin was picked up in Thorn's Farm, about a mile away.

The pilot landed only some 60 feet away from the blazing wreck, and was quickly and quietly captured. One of the first to reach the German was Mr E. O. Ling, an ARP Warden of Milford, foreman at the Nurseries, with Messrs H. Woodhouse and S. Kenchington, members of the Everton Home Guard, also employed at the nurseries.

Thanks Peter, I am looking to visit the site, as soon as the weather improves. But that may be some time!!!!!!
