oxford and moth

These two plane crashed very close to each other and the a54 buxton road the patch above is around where a dh-60 moth crashed on the 11/10/34 both on board survived .
http://peakwreckhunters.blogspot.com has a much better ref for this plane .

The small depression just by the wall is about where oxford EB717 crashed on 12/5/43 with the loss of the pilot sgt john wilson , the plane broke up through the wall and for about 30 or so yrds behind it.

These small parts were in the edge of the depression where they had been dug up at some point .
