those killed and injured by the Hazelhurst Road WW2 bomb

Categories: Tragedy

From Summerstown182: The V2 rocket landed at 8.30 on a Sunday morning "on the homes almost directly opposite the front of Smallwood School." and "At least thirty five people were killed and over one hundred injured. Among the dead were fourteen children. The oldest victim was 92 years old, the youngest just six months." That site lists the names of the dead and has maps showing the buildings destroyed. It is our picture source and is very informative.
