Walk in the footsteps of executioners, highwaymen & skeletons this Halloween

Executions on College Green
The brutal Ruscombe double murder and the Knutsford Highwayman’s grisly fate
Blood-soaked tales from Corn Street and the haunted Rummer Tavern
The tragedy of Catherine Morris
Redcliffe Caves, where skeletons and ghostly footsteps lurk in the dark
…& much more!
