The "Bluebird" has returned to Coniston in the Lake District, 57 years after sinking in a fatal crash during a speed record attempt.

Donald Campbell died trying to reach 300mph in the hydroplane, which then spent many years at the bottom of Coniston Water.

Having been restored, its new home is now in the village museum.
