Last Man Hanging - • Justice or injustice? Follow the path and decide

Accredited Tour Guide Jackie Ward and
Local author Kelvin Whelan will lead this tour.

Step into the chilling past and follow the haunting path of John Charles Tapner. From the blood-stained whispers of the murder scene to the gallows where he drew his final breath, this journey will lead you through the echoes of one of Britain’s most sensational criminal trials.

Published this year, Kelvin’s riveting book unveils the tangled web behind the longest trial of it’s era. Tapner’s life was a storm of domestic discord and petty transgressions,- but was he truly capable of murder? Or was he a scapegoat, condemned by circumstance and secrets?

We begin at Upland Road, tracing a route steeped in tension and intrigue. Through Les Canichers, winding through the heart of the town, and ascending to the solemn heights of St James, every step draws us closer to the truth – and back again to Upland Road, where the journey both ends and begins anew.
