The site can easily be reached from the Snake Pass walk

Now that the weather is warmer and the school holidays are fast approaching, many of us are looking for local places to explore and spend some time outdoors in. Nottinghamshire itself is full of so many beautiful spots for the whole family, whether you want to go for a picnic or a gentle stroll, but not too far away from the city is a walk unlike any other.

The site is the home of a wrecked US Air Force bomber, a Boeing B-29 Superfortress, that in 1948 crashed into the Peak District moorlands, near Higher Shelf Stones on Bleaklow. Part of the 16th Photographic Reconnaissance Squadron, used for military photography, the plane crashed due to a fatal navigation error in poor visibility. At least a dozen crew members lost their lives.
