Solved: The haunting of Murder Bridge

Available for over a year

Nat had almost given up on discovering how murder bridge got it's name. Until completely by accident she stumbled across a ghost story, reported as part of the minutes of a meeting of the Biggleswade Hospital Board in 1922. That led her on a twisty path to the truth, involving a libel case, a notorious Biggleswade spiritualist who believed he was secretary to Shakespeare's ghost, and two tragic and mysterious deaths. At the heart of this sensational story was the reason why Murder Bridge was given it's name, and who the locals thought the ghost that haunted it might be. Expect ghosts, seances, Victorian true crime, and some very colourful characters in this episode.
