Steve Gardham A guided tour of Ratcliffe Highway (46) RE: A guided tour of Ratcliffe Highway 24 Sep 23


Nick, correct. 19th century certainly a no-go area, and murder was rife. Some pubs that overlooked the river had trap-doors to drop the bodies through into the river, apart from being used for smuggling of course. The stories of tars being turned over are only the tip of the iceberg. I have read a few historical novels that give plenty of well-researched detail.
