GRANGEMOUTH SPITFIRE MEMORIAL

When driving into Grangemouth from Bo’ness, be sure to visit the life-sized replica Spitfire, reminding us of its historic role. This area was once a training ground for young pilots during World War II, with over sixty individuals from different countries tragically losing their lives while mastering daring maneuvers. The Grangemouth Memorial Trust unveiled the replica in May 2013, honoring trainee pilots from around the world who learned to fly the Spitfire at the beginning of WWII.
