New version of the Parish Neighbourhood Plan
New version of the Parish Neighbourhood Plan which will be submitted to the District Council Cabinet Meeting for approval in February.
The Story of “Lulu”
On Friday 8 November at 7pm in Ipsden Village Hall you can hear about the Stirling bomber that crashed in a field at Woodhouse Farm in October 1943 with the tragic death of all seven crew.
David MacSwayne, the nephew of the flight engineer on that fateful flight, will tell the story of ‘Lulu’ and the 7 men who flew it. He will share some of the research and stories that he and others have uncovered over the past few years including from the families of the 7 men (now traced), and from Ipsden residents – living eye witnesses and/or their descendants. In 2023 we organised a gathering at the farm for relatives of 5 of the crew, when they put up a plaque in their memory.
This talk is free and open to all. Drinks and nibbles provided. Donations appreciated to St Mary’s Church in Ipsden.
If you or others plan to come it would be helpful if you could e-mail [email protected] so we know approximate numbers.
