Gloster Meteor F Mk.4 RA487 : Looting













Nipped in on our way past the other day to find that all that remains at the Hagg Side crash site is this bit of armour plate. Shame on you, looters!

Gloster Meteor F Mk.4 RA487

Gloster Meteor F Mk.4 RA487
Another bit of an outing with Pat to the Hagg Side Meteor today showed that the wreckage pile has grown (click on the picture for notation showing which bits are new)

Usually wreckage piles just shrink as the anoraks take bits home, never seen one grow before!

Anyone know what these new bits are, and where they came from?

It has been suggested elsewhere that these have been added to the pile "by curious walkers", but I've been to the site several times before and searched the vicinity from various directions and I've never seen them (or indeed any other substantial scattered bits) before. Apparently they were already there last June.

Location: SK 16579 89040 (supersedes previous, this one is the average of 150 readings)
