IBCC Memorial Spire - Canwick Hill, Lincoln

24/10/2016

1 Comment

 
I was in Lincoln recently and I took this picture of the memorial spire on Canwick Hill. The spire (in the distance, dead centre) is part of the International Bomber Command Centre soon to open nearby. I also took a shot of Lincoln Cathedral at the same time (simply by turning around 90 degrees). The cathedral was a clear landmark for all bomber crews in the area.
