Lancaster Bomber Sculpture

Something for the summer. I'll be making a beeline for this, of that there's no doubt.
Maybe if some of you are near this place, and it's of interest to you, we could arrange a meet up, as long as it's not chucking it down. I think that this might be the access road when it's all done.

I'm in. I was literally looking at this yesterday, actually l want to visit Newark Air Museum which is only a hop skip and a jump from the monument. Local and cheap

That is incredible! I am nowhere near but would be tempted to tun it into a camping trip.

I was in the area in September and went to have a look, it is very impressive and hopefully the access road and visitor centre will be open soon.

You can drive around it along country lanes but some way away from it, a very impressive and fitting memorial.
