Burtonwood

A Memory of Patricroft.

A young US airman from Burtonwood died in a road accident on the bend near Barton airport. His funeral was held at Christchurch and the immediate area was choc-o-block with his comrades; even the locals turned out. This was about 1956.

I was 13 at the time and I remember standing outside the church totally mesmerised by all the people. Jolly
