Needle in a haystack! help required

Fenham-Le-Moor Farm, Northumberland

Gents and Ladies,

I have a crash site location at the above farm,
I have two eyewitnesses and the exact site.
Unfortunately, I have none of the following
a/c identification
Pilot (believed killed possibly RCAF or RAAF but then again!)
date (1943-1945)

It is probable that the a/c was 59 OTU as I have several 59 OTU sites on neighbouring farms
Can anyone help please?

Thank you

Chris
