Free talk by author Simon Potter about the murders that occurred in Lincolnshire during the Victorian era, staged by the Lincoln W.I.
Simon Potter is coming to The Grandstand on Thursday 5 November to talk about Victorian murders in and around Lincoln. He's the author of Lincolnshire's Victorian-era Murders, and that book is the starting point for the evening. He'll be using it to talk through the murders that happened across the area during the 19th century, so if you've got any interest in the city's darker history, this is right up your street.
The night is staged by the Lincoln W.I., and they've made it clear that non-members are more than welcome, so you don't need to be part of the Women's Institute to come along. It's a talk rather than a formal lecture, and since it centres on Potter's own book, you'll be hearing the stories from the person who spent the time digging them up.
