A TOUGH OLD SLOG UP TO THE SITE OF A WORLD WAR 2 BOMBER CRASH SITE, THE PLANE WAS RECALLED DURING AN ABORTED BOMBING RAID OVER GERMANY BUT WENT OFF COURSE IN POOR WEATHER AND ENDED UP CRASHING ON WEST HILL AT BRAYDON CRAGS, OF THE 9 CREW THE COCKPIT OCCUPANTS INCLUDING THE NAVIGATOR DIED, 3 MADE IT TO MOUNTHOOLEY AND 4 SAT IT OUT UP AT THE SITE. THEY WERE RESCUED AND LED DOWN BY SHEPHERDS AND THE DOGS, SOON AFTER THEY CLEARED THE AREA THE BOMBS ONBOARD EXPLODED CAUSING THE CRATERS AS CAN BE SEEN IN THIS, THE SHEPERDS AND THE DOG WERE AWARDED BRAVERY MEDALS. TRUE HERO STORY, A VERY SOMBRE PLACE. AFTER A TOUGH WALK UP WE PITCHED IN A SHELTERED SPOT AND HAD A GOOD CAMP. THANKS TO MARK AND ESPECIALLY RAB WHO TRAVELLED FROM HALIFAX FOR THIS CAMP. HOPEFULLY THE WIND NOISE ISNT TOO OFF PUTTING, I LEFT IT IN TO SHOW HOW WILD IT WAS..
Thanks for the video, may get up there soon x
Great video, even the wind noise can't drown out the folicly challenged fella while your doing your piece to camera. 🌬
Think i've watched every Wardle video now ...... immense channel. Laughed out loud a lot. Up in Bamburgh and Seahouses next week from sunny Cornwall. Will be waving to the Geordie mafia. Many thanks for all the excellent content.
Great video...brilliant spot. I’ve lived in Northumberland all my life and never been to the Cheviots...I’m missing out!
Great vid thanks. I love you geordies a great sense of humour. I've also started saying 'back out' when I go wildcamping. You really make me chuckle with the great comments really entertaining. My mates and I all love your videos atb Dave 😁👍
