B29 Over Exposed Crash Site
The United States Airforce Boeing RB-29A crashed in 1948. Much of the wreckage remains on the moors along with an official memorial erected in 1988. Sections of the wings and fuselage are still visible, along with gun turrets and Duplex-Cyclone engines. There is a trail up to Bleaklow Head that can be followed to Higher Shelf Stones, from there you can navigate to the site. It can be challenging to locate initially, and its very easy to get lost - especially in the mist, so be careful. Be aware of weather conditions and the terrain on the moors while hiking.
