1. An aircraft landing gear for an aircraft having an engine, an outer surface, a cavity formed in the outer surface and a cover arranged to close the cavity, the landing gear being arranged to be movable between a stowed configuration, in which it is stowed in the cavity, and a deployed configuration, the landing gear comprising an engine debris guard panel arranged to inhibit tyre propelled debris striking the engine whilst the landing gear is in the deployed configuration, wherein the guard panel is arranged to form at least a part of the cover when the landing gear is in the stowed configuration, wherein the cover comprises the guard panel and first and second cover panels movable between a closed configuration where the cover panels contribute to closing the cavity and an open configuration where at least some of the cavity entrance is open, wherein the first cover panel is movably connected to the outer surface at the opposite side of the cavity to the first panel, such that the guard panel is disposed between the cover panels when the landing gear is in the stowed configuration. 2. An aircraft landing gear according to claim 1, wherein the guard panel is arranged to mechanically interface with one or more of the cover panels, such that the latter, when in the closed configuration, can support the landing gear in a generally stowed configuration. 3. An aircraft landing gear according to claim 1, wherein at least a portion of the guard panel is arranged to absorb kinetic energy from tyre propelled debris. 4. An aircraft landing gear according to claim 1, wherein the guard panel is mounted on a support arm. 5. An aircraft landing gear according to claim 4, wherein at least a portion of the support arm is arranged to absorb kinetic energy from tyre propelled debris. 6. An aircraft landing gear according to claim 4, wherein at least a portion of the support arm comprises adjustable parts arranged to enable adjustment of the guard panel to align it properly to the aerodynamic profile of the aircraft when the landing gear is in the stowed configuration, thus accounting for imperfections in aircraft structure build. 7. An aircraft landing gear for an aircraft having an engine, an outer surface, a cavity formed in the outer surface and a cover arranged to close the cavity, the landing gear being arranged to be movable between a stowed configuration, in which it is stowed in the cavity, and a deployed configuration, the landing gear comprising an engine debris guard panel arranged to inhibit tyre propelled debris striking the engine whilst the landing gear is in the deployed configuration, wherein the guard panel is arranged to form at least a part of the cover when the landing gear is in the stowed configuration, wherein the cover comprises the guard panel and one or more cover panels movable between a closed configuration where the cover panels contribute to closing the cavity and an open configuration where at least some of the cavity entrance is open and, wherein the guard panel is arranged to mechanically interface with one or more of the cover panels, such that the latter, when in the closed configuration, can support the landing gear in a generally stowed configuration. 8. An aircraft landing gear according to claim 7, wherein at least a portion of the guard panel is arranged to absorb kinetic energy from tyre propelled debris. 9. An aircraft landing gear according to claim 7, wherein the guard panel is mounted on a support arm. 10. An aircraft according to claim 9, wherein at least a portion of the support arm is arranged to absorb kinetic energy from tyre propelled debris. 11. An aircraft according to claim 9, wherein at least a portion of the support arm comprises adjustable parts arranged to enable adjustment of the guard panel to align it properly to the aerodynamic profile of the aircraft when the landing gear is in the stowed configuration, thus accounting for imperfections in aircraft structure build. 12. An aircraft landing gear for an aircraft having an engine, an outer surface, a cavity formed in the outer surface and a cover arranged to close the cavity, the landing gear being arranged to be movable between a stowed configuration, in which it is stowed in the cavity, and a deployed configuration, the landing gear comprising an engine debris guard panel arranged to inhibit tyre propelled debris striking the engine whilst the landing gear is in the deployed configuration, wherein the guard panel is arranged to form at least a part of the cover when the landing gear is in the stowed configuration, wherein the guard panel is mounted on a support arm, and wherein at least a portion of the support arm is arranged to absorb kinetic energy from tyre propelled debris. 13. An aircraft landing gear according to claim 12, wherein the cover comprises the guard panel and one or more cover panels movable between a closed configuration where the cover panels contribute to closing the cavity and an open configuration where at least some of the cavity entrance is open. 14. An aircraft according to claim 13, wherein the guard panel is arranged to mechanically interface with one or more of the cover panels, such that the latter, when in the closed configuration, can support the landing gear in a generally stowed configuration. 15. An aircraft according to claim 12, wherein at least a portion of the guard panel is arranged to absorb kinetic energy from tyre propelled debris. 16. An aircraft according to claim 12, wherein at least a portion of the support arm comprises adjustable parts arranged to enable adjustment of the guard panel to align it properly to the aerodynamic profile of the aircraft when the landing gear is in the stowed configuration, thus accounting for imperfections in aircraft structure build. 17. An aircraft landing gear according to claim 1, wherein the guard panel is arranged to conform to the outer surface of the aircraft. 18. An aircraft landing gear according to claim 1, wherein at least a portion of the guard panel is arranged to withstand the impact of tyre propelled debris such that the tyre propelled debris does not travel towards the engine. 19. An aircraft landing gear according to claim 1, wherein the guard panel comprises a portion arranged to at least partially encompass the wheel. 20. An aircraft landing gear according to claim 1, wherein the height of the guard panel is similar to the height of a wheel of the aircraft landing gear. 21. An aircraft including a landing gear according to claim 1, wherein the engine is mounted towards the rear of the aircraft.
