Dog walkers find remains of WWII RAF plane

[Still Waters]

Two dog walkers discovered the wreckage of a rare WWII RAF fighter plane that laid buried in the sands of a beach for 76 years.

Debi Hartley, 51, was on a casual walk with her partner Graham Holden, 54, and their dog Bonnie when they made the “one in a million” discovery on Bank Holiday Monday.

The carcass of the fighter craft revealed itself on an undisclosed patch on Cleethorpes beach, Lincolnshire with its wings protruding through the shifting sands.

The couple then spent around an hour scanning the wreckage as they discovered more remnants of the aircraft.
