Wwii Bombing In England

[hc4361]

When was the last bomb(s) dropped in England during WWII?

Does anyone have a simple answer?

March '45 according to this site, http://www.bbc.co.uk/history/ww2peopleswar/stories/72/a4439072.shtml

1945? I'm all of a confuddle now

Why, the war didn't end till May 1945.

I've just read so many conflicting stories about the very last bomb to drop in England by German aircraft.

I don't know about anywhere else in England, but the last shell in Dover fell here at 7:15pm on 26th September 1944

The last v2 rockets exploded in Britain on 27th March 1945

V1s and V2s landed all right, but they weren't dropped by planes (which hadn't been able to get here for years); so it's a matter of whether you count them as bombs for your purpose.
