It’s only taken me most a day to appear on the thread.

The records of the MUs which were active at the time are not great it is solely entries in an ORB, the eastern side of the Peak District was largely the preserve of No.60 MU who really didn’t record much, for their waritme existance there are 16 entires about specific aircraft where the scribbly decided to write something. Other than that it was a case of listing the numbers of aircraft dealt with each month and the damage categories.

This is the only Peak District related entry for No.60 MU: November 30th 1943, “One difficult salvage operation was successfully effected during the month. An Oxford aircraft LX518 crashed on the artillery range at Langsett near Penistone, in one of the wildest and most inaccessible parts of the Pennine Chain. Three mobile sections were employed as all the salvageable parts, including the engines had to be sledged across 1 ½ miles of very rough moorland and bog by manpower to the nearest loading point. The operation was begun on November 7th and was completed on November 15th despite the fact that it was only possible to work at set times are the range was being used at intervals during the whole period.”

No.75 & No.34 MUs recorded even less, No.34 did do some post-war clear up of sites after the National Park was founded at the request of the then new park authority, reference is made to that work in their ORB from May, June & July 1955 but doesn’t list which sites they cleared just that work was progressing and then had been finished.
