Death in a Chocolate Box Presents a Wednesday Evening Walking Tour - The Ghosts of Walmgate.

For those of a curious and hardy temperament – why not come along and listen to the Lady Brigante one Wednesday evening as she shares with you the tales of those ordinary folk including the story of the desperate young mother, the wealthy ornithologist, the tragedy of a reputation shattered and a strange posioning.

And ALL lost to history – until now!

However, for those of a sensitive nature who are averse to real stories of tears, heartache and tragedy – a walk through Walmgate with the Lady B one Wednesday evening may NOT be to your taste.
