Site of the crash of Hawker Hurricane on 18th August 1940, piloted by Sgt. P K Walley, who managed to lift his crashing aircraft just enough to clear the nearby Haig homes and impacted Morden Park close to the A24. I remember the swampy area and large pond, said to have fromed from the impact crater. The site lies beneath the present college, where a plaque is located commemorating Peter Walley's bravery and self sacrifice. Refer to the full story at URL https://www.bbm.org.uk/airmen/Walley.htm
