14th Century Murder at the Manor

Huge thanks to all involved at today's Murder Mystery, to Nicolas for popping along and supporting the even, and to Harrison for the best bacon butty feast to start proceedings.

Set in the 14th century, Baron John de Bohun had been found stabbed in the back by use of an eating knife.

5 suspects, and ironically 5 visitors who signed up (some apparently didn't turn up).

Nonetheless some excellent questioning by one family correctly identified the murderer (always pays to have your eating knife with you if you do such events coz if you don't you're an easy target for the would be sleuths).

Thanks to Harrison and Nicolas for contributing to the photos.

Two other MMs at the Ruins later in the year, and a 3rd in discussion.

Well done all, really great couple of hours...
