617 Squadron Commemorative Window Update
Scampton church has always been the church of RAF Scampton and as such we feel it is so important to maintain the RAF Scampton heritage here.
The proposed 617 Squadron Commemorative Window is another Claire Williamson Glass commission. It will create a ‘sister’ window to the RAF Scampton Commemorative Stained Glass Window in the nave at Scampton Church.
The project is being spearheaded by RAF Scampton Heritage Centre, with the aim of recognising the formation of 617 Squadron at RAF Scampton on 21st March 1943, and have the window installed by the Squadron’s 80th anniversary in 2023.
Several substantial pledges towards to cost of the window have already been made and the final conceptual design is being drawn up by Claire.
