DV800

Not far from the crash site of lincoln RF511 is the site of the crash of wellington DV800 this plane hit an area called the black ladders with the loss of all on board on the 19/07/42, the small collection had a small plaque but this has worn and become unreadable .
About 100ft above the small pile is the impact point this has numerous small remains , also part of what i take to be a jumper or scarf and one blown .303.
This is the largest and lowest part i found if the stream is followed down from the site there are quite a few bits for about 200ft or so .
ref small pile SH 67583 63542 .

This small cairn built from some of the remains of avro lincoln RF511 holds a small plaque to the crew who were lost when the bomber hit high on cwm Llafar on the 15/03/50.

One very heavy duty hydraulic ram .
