Fairey Battle crash Devon

[CharlieP]

I am researching world war 2 crash sites between 1930 & 1945. A Fairey Battle crashed at the village of Monkton Devon on the 1st March 1939.
Despite my attempts with local, police and Devon records these are the only details I have.
I would be grateful if anyone can assist
Thank you
Charlie P

Hi Charlie,
attached an article from the Tiverton Gazette&East Devon Herald of 7 March 1939. I believe that's the a/c you are looking for.
This comes from the British Newspaper Archive. A great source for a few pounds. Cheers Sander
