Tholthorpe 1 ... 2 3 4 5 6 ... 39
tholthorpe 13 p1010028 w.jpg

Perhaps one day a more significant memorial to the crews who were lost from Tholthorpe could be constructed at the site.

It was certainly evocative to have walked along the runway and around the site bearing in mind that for many people this was their last contact on this earth. A very sobering and humbling thought indeed.
