In honour of American US airmen based in Essex during WWll and specifically the four crew of a returning bomber who crashed and died in our Parish, a marble plaque has been installed in Blackmore's historic St. Laurence Priory Church.  A Service of Dedication has been arranged for Saturday 24th September 2022.  Further details will be posted on the Council's main website.

A book -- Forgotten Final Flight of Baby Doll lll -- published to coincide with a previous date for the Dedication Service, forced to be cancelled due to Covid restrictions is available from Amazon.co.uk. The link is https://www.amazon.co.uk/Forgotten-Final-Flight-Baby-Doll/dp/B084P57ZH8/ref=sr_1_1?crid=17NWQ0RVE8I6L&keywords=forgotten+final+flight+of+baby+doll&qid=1584705649&s=books&sprefix=Forgotten+final+%2Caps%2C137&sr=1-1
