RE Meteor crash. Partridge Green 1954

I was working with my father in the garden on a saturday afternoon in Feb 1954, when two Meteor jets appeared. They commenced on a fantastic aerobatic display, diving, rolling, looping the loop, a fascinating scene. I watched this for a short time and as one meteor was in a vertical dive, I remember saying, “he needs to pull out quickly”. He did’nt, the plane screamed vertically into the ground. There was a thump, a ball of black smoke then silence. Our garden I would imagine to be about one and a half miles from the crash site at Lock Farm Partridge Green. I believe the local paper, West Sussex County Times reported this crash, but I cannot be sure.
