Back in August we reported on our visit to the crash site of Wellington LN536, with the help of Local historian John Panter, who kindly showed us the general location of a wellington crash witnessed by him at the time. Contact was made with the Land owner and an application for a Licence was made to the M.O.D.

Sadly on the 15th November we received the following:

David, Further to your licence application for the Wellington LN536, as you will see from the attached, regrettably we are unable to issue a licence because of the concern of possible human remains still at the site because of the nature of the accident despite the crew have known graves.

Following this sad news that remains of the crew are still believed to remain there, we feel that as a result of this information that this most poignant site deserves a memorial of some kind. We are there for now making plans for such an undertaking.
