Plans have been submitted for the installation of a World War 2 Hamilton Picket Fort Structure next to the Hudson Bomber, on the Silloth Green. The Hudson Bomber was first unveiled on the green in 2018, to celebrate the 100th birthday of the Royal Air Force and the town’s involvement in WW2. Now the Silloth Tourism Action Group are hoping to display a Hamilton Pickett Fort next to the statue, after it was excavated from Silloth Airfield, and is one of only 48 that exist in the UK. In a statement supporting the plans, the applicant said: "Silloth Tourism Action Group are wanting to display a World War 2 Hamilton Pickett Fort next to the Hudson Bomber on Criffel Street Green, post code CA7 4DQ. "This has been excavated from Silloth Airfield and is one of only 48 that exist in the UK (there are 2 others underground on Silloth Airfield).
