Not Pepperscombe Farm but Annington Hilltop Barn a mile or so South of Steyning Sussex
.The video link at the bottom shows a photo taken by an onlooker and kept secret
Snapped on a trailer at Oakhill, Heinkel 111P-4 G1+HP of I found 6/KG55 was brought down during an attack on Feltham by fighter action at Annington Farm, Bramber, at 17.20 on 16 August 1940. Gunfire from S/L David A Pemberton of No 1 Squadron RAF and P/O Keith T Lofts of No 615 Squadron RAF had damaged the oil cooling system causing engine failure and killing 2 crewmen. An airman of No 49 MU was electrocuted when a jib touched overhead cables as the aircraft was being loaded.
I found this on the internet and because I know the area around Bramber well got interested and investigated more I then found a link to a video explaining more. The plane crash landed on Annington Hill ,near a farmyard known as Annington Hilltop Barn https://maps.nls.uk/view/101435157
The video tells the whole story

Thanks for all your thoughts .I found the photo on e-bay with the message that the original owner of the photo had written ‘Taken on Shoreham Road’ on the back . I assumed it meant Shoreham by Sea,which would have been interesting to me but on investigating found that nothing matched .Shoreham Kent seemed to be the answer until I read the above analysis of the photo.I have made a quick search for other crash sites but have found nothing that fits.
