- **Event Description**: Join crime historian Adam Wood to hear the true story of the Valentine's Day M**der on Meon Hill, said to be a witchcraft killing.About this EventThe slaying of elderly hedgetrimmer Charles Walton on Valentine's Day, 1945, is Warwickshire Constabulary's oldest unsolved M**der.His body was found in a field on the slopes of Meon Hill - he had been struck over the head with his own walking stick, then pinned to the ground with a pitchfork thrust on either side of his neck. His trouncing hook, used that day to trim the hedgerow, was found sticking into a huge gaping wound in his neck.With the Warwickshire Police struggling for clues, detectives from Scotland Yard were dispatched. Despite interviewing tight-lipped locals, a mysterious red bearded man roaming the countryside, and over a thousand Italian prisoners of war held at the nearby Long Marston camp, the London detectives returned no closer to a conviction.Soon, whispers of witchcraft began to be spread.The sign of a cross had been carved on the victim's chest, it was said. Stories were told of a black dog which, should you see it, meant you or a family member were going to die. It was claimed that Charles Walton himself was a witch, who had cursed the land by training a pet toad to crawl along the earth with a toy plough tied to its back.What is the truth of this mysterious story?Join crime historian Adam Wood for this illustrated talk at the Redesdale Hall, Moreton in Marsh - just ten miles from the M**der scene - as he reveals the true story of the Meon Hill Witchcraft M**der.Doors open 6.30pmTalk starts 7.00pmInterval 8.00pmTalk resumes 8.20pmEnd 8.45pmBar available.
