Hi Guys,
I couldn't decide whether you'd class this as Urbex or not, so thought I'd post it anyway, see what you think.
After a two hour trek across rough terrain we visited the crash site of an American B-29 bomber. It crashed in 1948 on route to Burtonwood airbase, killing all 13 on board.
Amazingly there's wreckage still scattered over a wide area, although most of it has sunk into the ground and been washed away over the years.
Still on the surface is the main and nose undercarriage, a wing, all four engines, radiators fuel tanks and a gun turret, not to mention thousands of peices we couldn't identify.
