Bristol Blenheim Mk. 1 L1476 Revisited

Sykes Moor Crash Site Memorial
























I went out with Ian DB last Wednesday for a cluster of sites I've been to many times before. Wellington, Botha, Defiant, Blenheim. It's a nice walk over the tops, and an easy walk back on the Transpennine. 

Noticed a couple of things I hadn't before, including this "new" plaque on the Blenheim memorial. (New to me, its apparently been there since 2018). I've never seen it before, or indeed the scatter of wreckage a little way away with a sign saying "main wreckage this way" which Ian had been frustrated by on a previous visit, as it appeared to have been turned in an unhelpful direction.

Mat found this wreckage pool and sign close to the Sykes Moor Blenheim site. We'd never seen it before. The main site and memorial were as they were last time I came
