Avro Anson T21, VV987 the Wrekin Shropshire 12th of September 1952

 A couple of site visits around the Wrekin Shropshire the first was the crash of Avro Anson T21, VV987 which hit the slope on the 12th of September 1952 during a local flight from RAF Shawbury due to low cloud and the pilot becoming disorientated the pilot Sgt A.W.A.Gee was lost in the crash .
Even though I didn't find any remains of the plane due to being on private estate grounds just off a permissive path I did find signs of the damage the plane made hitting the trees and an area showing indications of a fire
