This Blenheim MKIV, which had previously taken part in the first 1,000 bomber raid on Cologne, departed from West Raynham for a raid on Germany on 9th June 1942. It suffered an engine failure and jettisoned the bomb load but sadly crashed at Brisley whilst trying to turn back to base and all three crew were lost. This memorial was erected in 2000.
