Langley Mill Bombed during WW2?
replied on: 4/22/2003 2:03:05 PM

I have been told that there were two bombs dropped on the fields where the council estate now stands on Daltons farm? apparently in the pig sty. A bomb also dropped in Foldens (I'm not sure of the spelling) field near peacock town, the blast shook the house my mother was in as a little girl, trapped her in the bedroom when the door jammed. A piece of shrapnel got stuck in one of the walls of the houses.My uncle was one of the wardens down Peacock town, he and another warden had one helmet between the two of them.
