Lostock Gralam aircraft crash site



This must have caused a bit of excitement in the village its a Junkers 88 bomber shot down by the New Zealand air force at 23.45 hours 5th of May 1941. The site I think is behind the train station the valley in the background is wade brook. I do know that the German bombers would follow the  river Trent and branch off along the Trent and Mersey canal on their way to Liverpool.
