10: The Meon Hill Murder
from The Unseen Podcast · host The Unseen Podcast
Lower Quinton is a civil parish in the Stratford upon Avon district of Warwickshire. In 1945 and largely today it has a small population and a mostly sleepy village feel. On the 14th February 1945 75 year old Charles Walton went out to work as an agricultural labourer as normal. When his niece returned home that evening at around 6pm and found that her uncle had not returned she was immediately worried. The reserved Charles did not often spend time with friends after work so his absence was strange. The gruesome and brutal scene was found not long after in a field on Meon Hill. What had happened to Charles Walton and more importantly who had done it?
