Description
Illustrated with more than 60 archive images, this collection of true tales from across the Ribble Valley gives a record of crime and punishment. It begins with the paranoid prisoner of Barnoldswick and passes through an alphabet of place names that ends within the haunted ruins of Whalley Abbey, where the execution of a martyred monk was staged.
