Summary
[edit]
| Description |
English: Fauld crater. This crater, some 300-400 foot deep and up to half a mile across is the result of the explosion of 3,500-4,000 tons of munitions stored in the old gypsum mines under this spot. The explosion on 27/11/1944 is reckoned to be the largest non-nuclear explosion in either World War. The 582298 on the edge of the crater is dedicated to the 70 or so people who died as a result of the explosion.
