Looking across to the original location of the C-47 wreck referred to in the next post from the coordinates given in High Ground Wrecks for an Oxford crash site, where we found this aircraft component.

The HGW coordinates and location do not agree, as noted in comments on this post, so we will investigate further.

Location:SH 70243 66962

Propellor from the C-47 wreck which used to hang on the gully wall above Llyn Dulyn in Snowdonia, but from which not much has been seen for quite some time.

We were well pleased to find this, our first bit of the day...
