Memorial to a lost Wellington
During WWII, St Andrew's park was the scene of a terrible crash. A Vickers Wellington twin-engined bomber, returning home from a night raid, flew into a barrage balloon site near Purdown. With the aircraft being dragged by a cable wrapped around the wing and losing height rapidly, the bomber skimmed the houses just down the road; its cable caught on trees in the park and brought the 'Wimpy' down in it.
Of the six crewmen, three were killed and the others injured. Local people and a policeman ran to the crash and, braving burning fuel and exploding ordnance, rescued the survivors. The names are recorded on this stone
