A mere prang and probably back in the air quite quickly. The idea of having the retracted main wheels protruding below the engine nacelles probably saved it from sustaining greater damage. You can see the tyre marks in the snow.

Anson I AN-102 survived with the Finnish Air Force until 1943, according to the Air Britain Anson file.

Edited to say thanks for posting a great photo!
