EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the haunting wreckage of a Douglas Invader A-26B light bomber, identified as EAW014625, at Warton Bank in Lancashire. Taken by Aerofilms on 21st April 1948, this aerial image offers a glimpse into the aftermath of a tragic incident that occurred during World War II. On the fateful day of 29th November 1944, shortly after take-off, this ill-fated aircraft met its untimely demise. The remnants seen here tell a story of bravery and sacrifice that unfolded in the skies above Lancashire decades ago. The image evokes a sense of both awe and sadness as we witness the powerful machine reduced to twisted metal and scattered debris. It serves as a poignant reminder of the risks faced by those who served during wartime and pays tribute to their courage. Through this photograph, Historic England Archive invites us to reflect upon our shared history and remember those who made sacrifices for our freedom. It stands as an enduring testament to human resilience amidst adversity. As we gaze upon this solemn scene from above, let us honor not only the fallen but also acknowledge how far we have come since those dark days. This print reminds us that even in times of destruction, hope can emerge from ruins – symbolizing our collective ability to rebuild and move forward towards brighter horizons.
