St Mary Magdalene Parish Church
Tickets: £7.50
Catherine Pincott-Allen (a.k.a. Emmaline Severn), a family descendant of the perpetrator, will bring a dark story from 1864 to you.
AN OFFENCE SO RANK IT SMELLS TO HEAVEN, A MOTHER'S MURDER!
Newark was where Parker had a butcher's shop on Stodman Street; he married at St Mary Magdalene's Church, and he was a frequent visitor to the many public houses in town!
Catherine will walk you through the events that led up to this felonious crime, take you to the murder scene, introduce you to the postmortem and lead you into the courtroom where you will decide his fate.
WHAT WILL YOU DECIDE?
