CLAPHAM
Lying on the banks of the
mighty River Great Ouse, this village has added
poignancy because it was the scene of the American
bandleader Glenn Miller’s fateful last flight. He
never returned after taking off from a now-disused
airfield after performing for US troops here and
at Bedford’s Corn Exchange.
