Talk: Alfred Monson And The Ardlamont Murder
About this event
TALK: ALFRED MONSON AND THE ARDLAMONT MURDER
Friday 9 October, 1-2pm
Djanogly Theatre
£4.50 (free concessions)
A shot rings out across the woodland on a morning in 1893, and a young man is dead. The mysterious death of the wealthy and handsome Cecil Hambrough became a media sensation, and the “Not Proven” verdict at the trial of his tutor, Alfred Monson, shocked Victorian Britain.
Drawing on sources uncovered by archivists from Manuscripts and Special Collections during their research for author Dr Lindsey Fitzharris's latest book into the man who inspired Sherlock Holmes, this talk uses material from the University of Nottingham to re-examine what may really have happened.
