Lincolnshire’s Dark Past

In this year's Halloween episode I tell the tragic tale of a local murder that shook the local community in 1919, and made national news. When 29 year old Dick Rowland came back from the Great War he wanted to settle down with the girl of his dreams. The war had left him damaged and in a jealous rage he killed 18 year old Florence Jackson. We visit the scene of the murder and local places they would have known well.

    Roy and Mike took us on the Halloween cycle ride to Fullbeck. Roy stopped us at various locations and relayed the story of Florry and Dick. Great ride and story telling.

    A fascinating piece of local history and storytelling. I also rode with a group and Roy today visiting the places he mentioned in the tale. Loved it. 😊

    A very appropriate tale for Halloween. When you mentioned the woman's name, it put me in mind of an old folk song 'Flora' by Peter Paul & Mary. A young man is in love with Flora. He discovers she is keeping company with another. He sees them standing under a tree and the man kisses Flora. The young man flies into a rage and kills him for which he is hanged. In this case, Flora survives. Unfortunately, the Flora in your story wasn't so lucky even though she apparently had done nothing wrong. 😢 Have a good Halloween. 👻🎃

    Good story Roy. Very sad and the human race still has many things to learn.

    Well, I’ll not be stopping with my Tyre Glider to help any young victorian ladies in that area again! It’s clearly cursed 😂

    a real shame (literally) that men so often take out their frustrations or failures on women. nevertheless, thanks for the bedtime story Uncle Roy.... if I have nightmares it'll be all your fault!

    @@RideWithRoy it does (sometimes work the other way). another real shame is that men keep getting sent to war (and that too isn't solely the men, these days, of course).
