Full Description

Three bomb craters of World War Two date are visible as earthworks to the south of Cattawade, Brantham parish, centred on circa TM107324.

Their arrangement in a line, spaced circa 100m and 200m apart, suggests they were drop as part of an airborne bombing run, as opposed to ground based or accidental damage. (S1)
