From the Telegraph online:

Plane loses piece

The Civil Aviation Authority launched an inquiry after a metal flap from a Federal Express plane's wing fell off and landed in a garden at Thaxted, Essex, as the aircraft, flying from Paris, approached Stansted. The airport said it measured 5ft by 2ft.
I think the paper version had a bit more detail as to the location.
