  On 18th June 1940 an enemy aircraft dropped a number of bombs between Mr. Bray's house and Mr. R. T. Cunnington's Fen, two not exploding. One was a "Whistler" weighing 500 lbs., no trace of the bomb was found.  Three or four days later it was discovered that sixteen bombs had fallen and had sunk deep into the soggy ground.
Amongst the Civil Defence Wardens who attended the search was Mr. Frank Crocker. (Of the King William)
