Hi all crikey havent been on this site for ages. I was especially interested in this thread I located whilst doing an Internet sweep on B17 AN 536. This was partially because I have covered this crash in my book “War Torn Skies Cambridgeshire published by Red Kite Books. But also for another reason Im am a keen metal detectorist and have been searching the Shepreth area for ages. I too had a passing interest in this Fortress but never came across anyone who remembered it. Well to cut along story short whilst in the area the other day I came across a 0.50 calibre bullet and a few scraps of alloy. It wasnt until I checked the headstamp to see it was “50 ACL. X . 1940” that I realised I was onto something very interesting. Several trees bore scars of violent impact and the area was covered in globules of once molten alloy. I found plexiglas a lovely tear drop shaped access panel handle and more 1940 dated cases. Basically after years of half hearted searching I had stumbled across the crash site of AN 536 by accident….whilst I was really out that day looking for Roman and Saxon coins. I intend to investigate site intensely so cant reveal exactlyy where it is. But I can be contacted on [email]j.evenhart@ntlworld.com[/email] by any interested parties and will pass on pics of trees and artefacts so far located………cheers everyone Jules.
