Having started to post this, I had a Google for their website, and they are shut for the winter… Ah well, as Magnus Magnusson used to say “I’ve started so I’ll finish”. I can always pick it up again in spring…
The museum at Hawkinge has a large chunk of wing, hanging on it’s wall, from a Dornier Do17Z that crashed at Cole End, Wimbish, having been shot down during a raid on RAF Debden. There is a 50% chance that two of it’s crew were captured by a relation (sadly now deceased) when they baled out over the village of Great Sampford.
Given their ban on photography by visitors, is there any way of obtaining a photograph of it – ie by finding out who to ask, not cloak-and-dagger stuff! It would be an interesting and unusual addition to the family history file.
Any assistance much appreciated!

Thank you for the offer, Geoff. If I try to PM you, I am told that I’ve turned private messages off, and I need to edit my profile to turn them on. But I can’t see where to do it on the profile. Any ideas?
