Over the years Newark Air Museum has dedicated several memorials to reflect RAF Winthorpe’s role as a training base. The RAF Winthorpe / 1661 Heavy Conversion Unit (HCU) memorial that was unveiled on 24th September 2000 features part of a propeller hub of a Stirling EF186, from 1661 HCU, which was then based at RAF Winthorpe. The aircraft crashed at Breeder Hills near Grantham, Lincs on 4th December 1944 carrying a crew of nine and there were no survivors. • https://www.nottinghamshire.gov.uk/ww2
